abstract
| - The Sierra prime ministerial election of 2012 was the 39th prime ministerial election held on Tuesday, October 16, 2012. The Democratic-Republican nominee, incumbent Prime Minister Steven Hong, and his running mate, Deputy Prime Minister Preston Bolivar, were elected to a second term following their victory in the October 17 runoff election, against Royalist opponent Paul Roemmer and his running mate, Barry Underwood. During the election, Hong also faced off Libertarian challenger Ryan Porter and his running mate, Emily Rabinowicz. As the incumbent Prime Minister with a strong, solid first term, Hong stood virtually unopposed in the nomination for the Democratic-Republican Party. The Royalist Party struggled throughout the election year in search of a nominee before choosing social conservative Paul Roemmer to lead. Meanwhile, Ryan Porter won the Libertarian Party's nomination with ease, initially posing a serious threat to the Royalists' standing in the election as it split potential votes among Sierran conservatives. The campaigns focused primarily on domestic issues, ranging from economic recovery from the Great Recession to lobbying in Porciúncula. Following October 16 night, Hong and Roemmer were declared the victors of the first election, and faced each other off on the runoff election that was held the day next. Hong secured 47.2% of the vote, narrowly defeating Roemmer in a hotly contested election, and remained set for a second term in office.
