Ideology
Moderates
The Moderates or Centrist faction of Gjorka United are an ideologically centrist faction within Gjorka United. The faction has traditionally been the dominant faction of the party controlling the party from it's legalization in 1972 up until 1996. During this time both Presidents elected by Gjorka United, Samuel MacMorrow and Wilson Aldrich, were members of this centrist faction. However, President Aldrich left the party in 1996 to form the Pro-Gjorkan Initiative bring much of the parties's moderate faction with him.
Being the preeminent faction of the party for much of it's history, the moderates had no internal organizations within Gjorka United until 1996. Following the rise of the Conservative faction and Right-wing populist faction of the party, groups have been formed such as the Gjorka United Forum. The Forum is a caucus within the National Assembly.
Several current prominent members of Gjorka United are from the moderate faction including Martin Kittle, Gjorka United presidential nominee in 2016, Sean O'Brien former mayor of Rusynia and presidential candidate in 2021, and Andrew Finnigan current Vice Chair of Gjorka United among others.

The party became the dominant faction within the party in 1996 following the creation of the Pro-Gjorkan Initiative by President Wilson Aldrich which much of the moderate faction of the party flocked to. In 2006, Joseph Marcos was elected president, the first president from the faction. The faction would gain it's second president in 2021 when Carter Morris was elected.
