| abstract
| - The 2057 Dresden Federal Election was the fifth federal general election conducted after the Second Constitution was adopted. The election saw the incumbent Culik government led by Prime Minister Evan Gracie re-elected with an even larger majority. The party took in 61% of the vote and 122 seats, a gain of 14 from the last election. The Third Parliament saw an extreme budget pass in the early years that significantly cut welfare expediters and further devolved powers to the states, backing up the fact that the constitution laid out the political union among the states as a confederacy, with a weak central government and strong state governments. During the four and a half years of the government, popularity for the Prime Minister and the Culik Party were generally positive. The Prime Minister's popularity sunk to 39% in the aftermath of the 2054 budget, which many saw to go too far in cuts. His 2055 budget reigned in some of these cuts along with further cutting taxes, which created a federal budget deficit for the first time in Dresden's history. An emergency fix was implemented that taxed energy 0.4% more that the previous rate, which closed the deficit. This act of saving the deficit was seen as heroic by many Dresdians, and his approval shot up to 70% in December of 2055. 2056 was a status quo year with no new major propositions and spending levels around the same level. The constitution gives a firm 10 year term limit on governments, and the Prime Minister holds the prerogative to call a new election at any time during the Parliamentary term. Evan Gracie indicated that he would try to keep the current Parliament intact for the majority of he possible term. However, when a poll was published in January of 2057 showing that 70% would support Culik in the next election with the PM's popularity at a staggering 78%. Although it had only been four years since the previous election, the Prime Minister indicated that through mass immigration, the population of the country had nearly doubled, and new citizens deserved a say in their government. Parties took notice and began preparing for a general election. In March, the Prime Minister indicated that he would drop the writ during the summer and the election would take place in early July. Prime Minister Evan Gracie dropped the writ on May 31, 2057 and scheduled the election for July 4, 2057.
