Political background

Presidency of Atohi Dustu

In December 2020, the Cooperation and Development Coalition (CODECO) launched a military intervention in the Sequoyan Civil War. CODECO installed Colonel Atohi Dustu as provisional president in opposition Admiral Diwali Wesa, the interim president. Wesa resigned by early January 2021 and Dustu was recognized as the legitimate president of Sequoyah by the international community. Dustu commanded Sequoyan forces and brought an end to the civil war by May 2021 and declared that elections would be held within the next year to elect the country's president, vice president, 40 senators, 125 assemblymen, and 3 out of the country's 6 governors. In the 2022 presidential election, Dustu, who ran as a member of the National Reconstruction Party, defeated Wohehiv Avonaco of the Republican Party in the second round by a margin of almost 6 points. Although some journalists and opposition politicians accused the government of voter fraud, Dustu was officially inaugurated as the 16th president of Sequoyah on 20 April 2022.

One of Dustu's primary campaign promises was to get Sequoyah readmitted to CODECO, from which the country was expelled in mid-2020 following a coup d'état which overthrew President Cheasequah Waya. Dustu agreed to hold referendums in three of Sequoyah's northern provinces to determine wether or not they would be annexed into Creeperopolis, Sequoyah's northern neighbor.[1] The referendums resulted in Creeperopolis annexing the districts of Navidad and San Juan Diego in December 2022, but as a result, Sequoyah was admitted in CODECO.[2] Sequoyan opposition politicians accused Dustu of giving away Sequoyah territory in an attempt to appease Creeperopolis.[3]

Election procedure

The 2028 presidential election is scheduled to be held six years after the 2022 presidential election. The president and vice president will be elected on a joint ticket through a popular vote. The constitution of Sequoyah mandates that the election will be "free and fair". As mandated by the constitution, the election will be held on 27 February 2028, the last Sunday of February. If necessary, a second round will be held on 12 March 2028, the second Sunday of March. Voting is not compulsory.

A ticket needs an absolute majority (50% + 1) in order to be declared the election's winner. If no ticket receives an absolute majority, the two tickets which received the most votes will advance to a second round where the ticket which receives an absolute majority would be declared the election's winner. All presidential and vice presidential candidates must be at least 30 years old, be a Sequoyan citizen by birth, and not have had their rights as a citizen suspended in the six years prior to the election.
