The PCN Storm the Elections!

The workers voice has been heard in the corridors of Government Buildings, Bandera, after an enormous success for the PCN candidates, Juan Fidel Valencia and Julio Sanchez de Frente in the elections, with both being elected with ease to the Council of State. Juan Fidel Valencia, mastermind of the PCN's extensice electoral platform and recently-elected party chairman, won a landslide victory standing 5 points clear of any other candidate. Such support in the elections has allowed the PCN to reassert itself as not only the natural party of both Marxism and socialism in Baracão, but clear the way for the PCN to build on the success so that it may once again take the state into worker's hands.

The narrow victory for Carrar, winning only 1 vote against Santiago, also signifies increasing support for the left in Baracão. Santiago, a socialist, seems to have won traditional left-wing Frente support, showing that there is desire for a return to socialism in Baracão This may cause immense changes in Baracãoan politics as the left once again gains confidence, and the petty bourgeois radicals of the ADN contemplate their huge defeat, and the options left open to them. However, one thing is clear from the PCN victory; Socialism is back on the agenda, and its voice must, and will be heard!
