It was an overcast day in the city of Leorudo, and the populace of the small nation had just recieved word of one of the most embarrassing scandal's in the nation's political history. The daily newspaper known as "The Leorudian Chornicle" had broken a story that President Donald Secladius, the leader of the Leorudian nation, had been sleeping with multiple office assistants throughout his cabinet for almost three years of his Presidency. This scandal ruins the President's reputation as a family-man and a strong-willed politicians tethered to traditional Leorudian morals. This scandal could not come at a worse time for the leader of the nation, as the semi-elections(elections where unless he recieves less then 25% of the vote, he remains in office) are in a week. His hopes for winning re-election were riding high until an unsuccessful military campaign for an the island of Wicksteed was unsuccessful and this new scandal broke out. As of recent times, his approval rating has taken a nosedive.(as shown here):

Meanwhile, an opposition party known as the Leorudian Party for Expansion(or LPE, for short) has quickly risen in the polls. This is a party that has not had any politicians in the office of President in the history of Leorudo and has only held minimal seats in the Senate, but in recent, a rally has been made by the party favorite Oliver Balone, who criticised the President's attack on Wicksteed when there was unclaimed fertile lands surronding Leorudo itself. He also stated on how the economy has began the falter an unemployment was an issue. He also talked about how remaining as a small city-state would sustain itself in the modern day, and the the Leorudian people must sieze an oppurtunity to improve this nation by doing what they can to insure that Leorudo as a nation can expand to meet it's new, arising needs. Multiple members of Donald Secladius' own party have changed parties and new senate bills were being passed by the hour adjusting ways for an election to be held as soon as possible.

Breaking News out of Leorudo
President Donald Secladius has just made a speech in the town center of Leorudo. In a not-so-shocking development, he has annouced his resignation from the office of Presidency to his small group of loyal supporters. The speech concluded with a small round of applause and the President making a quick exit in his security outfit. It is rumored that the President had departed for the airport, but that was not what was important at the time. The President failed to name the man who would take over for him, so the Senate voted in, to not a large surprise, Oliver Balone, the head of the Leorudian Party for Expansion. This would not grant him the full powers of President until the elections in a few days, but everything was all but set in stone. President-Elect Oliver Balone would lead the nation of Leorudo into a new chapter.
