  • The Dorvain General Election, 1886 was held on the 27th May 1886 to elect the 22nd Parliament of the Commonwealth of Dorvain. Each of the 125 parliamentary constituencies elected one Member of Parliament to Parliament. In the summer of 1885 the Purple Plague broke out, killing tens of thousands. By the winter it had died out, with many of the government's emergency precautions taken thought to have ended the outbreak sooner. As such, Carl Clarke was seen as a national hero and was hugely popular. The Democrats promised better sanitation for the future by heavily investing in better infrastructure and hospitals. The Royalists faltered and couldn't think of a counter campaign, with many Senators famously refusing to stand against Clarke's government. As such the Royalists were delivered their worst ever defeat to date, returning a mere 17 Senators to the Democrats 108. The election was also notable for the Democrats winning the capital for the first time which has traditionally been a Royalist stronghold.
