April 2022 Baykonian Election

The April 2022 Baykonian Elections was the 13th Baykonian prime ministerial election. It was held from 19 to 21 April.

The election was overseen and organised by TheEwokMaster.

The election was won the Tulipanist Party candidate, Hubert P. de Honse, who won a landslide victory following the disqualification of the Coalition's initial candidate Loreth Gilroch by the Zarissian Ministry of Judgement.

Background
The victory of Hubert P. de Honse in the previous March 2022 Baykonian Election was not an expected outcome. Hubert P. de Honse had by the time the polls opened lost his desire to become Prime Minister. Thus, when Hubert won the election, he lacked any plans on how to run Baykonia. Due to this, his term was known for its lack of actions and was thus criticised for it. The middle of his term saw the start of the Easter Baykonian Rebellion, which caused further criticism of his apathy.

Candidates
Initially, four candidates applied to run in the elections. Those were:


 * Incumbent Prime Minister, Hubert P. de Honse for the Tulipanist Party
 * Former General Deputy Loreth Gilroch as an Independent
 * Pjork Oinkerson as an Independent
 * Deputy of Kuzino Mbhpower1 for the EID Party

Hubert P. de Honse
Hubert P. de Honse ran on a moderate platform, promising Electoral Independence, a rework of the Instrument of Government and strengthening Baykonian Democracy. He has been criticised during his tenure for his lack of action and many have blamed Neubaykonia's faults on Hubert's unwillingness to act and opposition to certain reforms.
