An election took place in Gaduridos in January 3826 to elect the 430 members of the Federal Assembly and the Senate. These two chambers of parliament are the supreme legislative assemblies of the country, and together form the Gaduridan Congress. Since the politics of Gaduridos take place within the frames of a parliamentary system, Congress is independent from the country's head of state, while it controls the federal cabinet and the Prime Minister. Furthermore, the President of the Federal Union, the country's head of state, is elected separately from, but on the same date as Congress.
