1600 Solhaven Federation General Election
The Solhaven Federation has held its fourth quadrennial general election to determine the makeup of the 4th Federation Parliament, to be seated from 1601-1605. The House of Delegates, the lower but stronger of the two houses of Parliament, and its 550 seats are up for grabs. To win the election, a party must attain 275 of the 550 seats for an overall majority and the right to form a government. Currently, the Federation Party controls the government in a coalition with the Alliance Party after the 1595 general election ended in a hung Parliament.
In each of the previous three general elections, no party has been able to attain the majority of seats to form a government outright. The Federation Party has in each of the previous three general elections has won the most seats in the House to establish the dominant position in any government. The Union Party has also in each of the previous three elections has run in second place, and the Democratic Republican and Alliance parties alternating third and fourth places.

- Federation 209 - Union 143 - Alliance 99 - Democratic Republican 99 -
- 275 seats needed for majority -
- Result: Hung Parliament; Federation largest party, entered coalition with Alliance to form government -
In the 1600 general election, the Federation Party led polling for most of the campaign, riding along with strong approval ratings for the Montgomery Scott government. But the Alliance Party openly attacked the Federationists, ensuring that another coalition would be next to impossible between the two conservative parties. The exit poll forecasts predicted the following result:
- Federation 225 (+16) - Union 161 (+18) - Alliance 80 (-19) - Democratic Republican 82 (-16) - Independents/Others 1 (+1) -
- 275 seats needed for majority -
- Forecasted Result: Hung Parliament; Federation largest party, likely to form a minority government -
So which of the four major parties in the end will win the general election? Stay tuned to find out.
