[center][h2]DEMOCRACY: Election of 1993, Week 6[/h2][/center][hr][hr]														
[center][h1]The Final Weeks[/h1][/center]
The hot Summer of 1993 continued. The First National Debate had ended. While the D.A.R. was not as well prepared, Samuel Bassong left the debate riding a wave of local success. The early questions saw the [b]Samgolan Patriotic Party[/b] and the [b]Samgolan Dawn[/b] hitting record lows during the first hour and a half and then sharply recoiled with poised answers and opinions, while Bassong and the Liberal Democrat candidate--who came out strong--both settled back onto their haunches. With the debates over, polling followed in the days after and came back with similar results.

Given the issues of the National Militias, the [b]Presidential Committee of Samgola[/b], in a vote of 11-9, decided to forego the traditional twelve week election cycle in favor of eight weeks instead, the election immediately following the Second National Debate. This drew the ire from some political pundits who felt that the media was attempting to perhaps sway votes in the arena of the [b]Democratic Alliance for Reform[/b], who had started the election out strong but had had their lead cut into considerably by the [b]Liberal Democrats[/b] and [b]Samgola Dawn[/b].
