Kidulian presidential election, 2017
View attachment 426616



Presidential elections
were held in Kidulia on 20 August 2017, with six candidates contesting the election for the position of Kidulia's President, the head of state and head of government. Sandiaga Uno attempted to be elected for a second term, but he was defeated by Basuki Tjahaja Purnama of the People's Justice Party, becoming the first ethnically Chinese President, and Kidulia's first president from the country's Christian minority. All other major parties contested the election, thanks to the preferential voting system used in Kidulia's presidential election. The Orange Party also contested the election for the first time, having previously chosen another candidate to endorse, instead running their own candidate to "raise the profile of the issues facing Dutch-Kidulians today". The election saw a turnout of 68.7%, the second highest since the country's first free elections in 1992.​
