The 2006 Gjorkan Presidental Election was an election held in Gjorka to determine the next president of Gjorka. Joseph Marnell easily defeated incumbent Joe Wallace by nearly 15 percentage points. Wallace's loss is primarily attributed to the Laura Samille Scandal which occurred a few months before the election in which it was revealed President Wallace had been having an affair with Samille since she was 16.
