The 2024 Gandoor National and Forum Election was held on Saturday, 24 July 2024. The elections were the 21st National Election, 31st Forum Election, and 11th dual National and Forum Election.

Pre-election polling generally indicated a close election, with most polls indicating that whichever party would win control of the Forum by less than five seats.

The election resulted in the Communist Party winning a plurality of 6 seats[2]. The Communists won two seats in the election and won 48% of the popular vote.

The New Democratic Party, which controlled the Forum prior to the election, lost seven seats and won 47.8% of the popular vote. They were the only political party to lose seats in the election. With the loss of their control of the Forum, party leader and incumbent Prime Minister Nikolai Olanovich Semenov became the first Prime Minister to lose the office due to their party's electoral loss since Steven Livingston in the election of 2000[3].

Footnotes

  1. Semenov was incumbent Prime Minister and Prime Ministers are required to have resigned their seat in order take office
  2. No political party has had a majority of seats in the Forum since 2012
  3. Akane Sasaki was the most recent Prime Minister to have served only one term, however she resigned as Leader of the Gandoor Communist Party in 2005 and was not her party's nominee for Prime Minister in the 2006 election, so she did not lose the office due to electoral defeat
