The constitution of Wendatia had been changed to hold presidential elections on June 1 annually. This resulted in an election beginning, with 4 candidates registering. With Ezri Ambriz splitting off to form the National Centrist Party, this signaled a decline for DPF's dominance within government.

Mid-election

Resignation of Sean Dunkerque

Sean Dunkerque, who was Deputy President at the time, had resigned with the following statement: "After the Mutual Recognition with Australis and with the President unconstitutionally denying someone to create a political party, I announce I shall resign as Deputy President and leave DPF. It's a shame I have to do this, and I hope the President now starts to realise what he has been doing isn't the best. Good day.". After O'Lachtna's resignation, Leon Montan was appointed Deputy President.
