In a shock turn of events, neither candidate won the Idealist Party's controversial leadership election which pitted fascist agitator Sir Pavle Savovic KOSA against conservative libertarian Sir Shady Morsi KCS. The majority of the party's eleven eligible voters voted for a "none of the above" option, which was only included by the request of rejected candidate Tanju Çakar. The third option, which was seen as a protest vote by left-wing Idealist Party members against the two right-wing candidates, had nine votes (53% of the vote) which beat Sir Savovic KOSA's six votes and Sir Morsi KCS's two votes. The result gave neither of the candidates a mandate to take over the role as chairman and following a tense emergency meeting that contained all members of the party who held a seat in Pavlov's State Council, including Sir Savovic KOSA and Sir Morsi KCS, it was decided that Baron Hasan Tradthar-i-falur had to retain the position of chairman.
Sir Savovic KOSA protested against reinstating Baron Tradthar-i-falur, claiming that the protest vote was not a valid option and that he won because he had the majority. Sir Savovic KOSA also threatened to leave the party and create his own political party. However, he eventually decided to stay and both him and Sir Morsi KCS decided to give their full support to Baron Tradthar-i-falur and help him reunite the party following the ideological split between left-wing and right-wing elements within the party.
The election result itself will be a relief to the ruling coalition, which the Idealist Party is the lesser partner of. The result means that the party will be still led by a supporter of a coalition and will not be taken over by Sir Savovic KOSA, who's main campaign promise was leaving the coalition.
Baron Tradthar-i-falur has said that as well the main goals of the party now will be gathering more members and supporters and making new reforms. Baron Tradthar-i-falur has said that he will not ignore the demands of the supporters of Sir Savovic KOSA and Sir Morsi KCS and he will take a more moderate approach on economic policies and the party will become more nationalistic to appease the right-wing of the party. He has also said that the party will not expect another leadership election in the near future, however if one is too take place it will be much better organized than this one was.
We interviewed both candidates of the election to here their thoughs:
Interview with Sir Shady Morsi KCS
Q: Hello Sir Morsi KCS, commiserations on your defeat.
A: Hello.
Q: What do you think went wrong, why didn't you win?

Q: Will this result change your policies or political views in anyway?
A: No.
Q: What did you think of your rival during the election? Would you have supported him if he won?
A: He has a very bad reputation in the entire micronational world. Mahuset banned him and he only wants to have power but on the other hand he has some good ideas.
Q: What do you think about him labeling you an "establishment candidate"?
A: Ironically he is using establishment elements to have build on his campaign.
Q: If there was another leadership election to take place, would you run?

Q: Hello Sir Pavlov KOSA, commiserations on your defeat.
