#54:
Elections to the 27th Cosa - April 2000
Not a very different situation from the one described for the 28th Cosa, and no major change from the election before. King Ben made a big fuss about the RCT losing votes to the Liberals, who got their best result yet, but in the end the effects were really marginal, mostly because the PC kept its majority. Also, the RCT did not lose a single seat, due to an unlucky dieroll one election earlier. The gains for the TLP came mostly from parties that were not in power, but wasn't nearly enough to break the stalemate and permanently unite the opposition under one banner. Even if the PC had lost its majority, which it didn't, it seemed more likely that the RCT, or the ZPT, who according to Ár Päts were upset with the other two opposition parties for blocking the nomination of Ieremiac'h Ventrutx as opposition leader would have formed a coalition with them rather than a three way coalition without the PC. Only one seat changed party.

Progressive Conservative Party (PC): 56.0% (+4.9) / 11 (nc)
