The general election in Springmont is usually held every two years (one term). Political parties will form a coalition between them and a coalition of those with the highest votes of 240 contested seats will be elected to the government.

To elect the president, the winning party with the highest votes, its chairman shall be elected president and shall have the power of appointing the vice president, ministers, state secretaries and other positions authorized by him.

Parliament of Springmont
The Parliament of Springmont is the unicameral supreme legislature of Montian. Legislation may be initiated by either the Government or one of the members of Parliament. The Parliament passes legislation, decides on the state budget, approves international treaties, and supervises the activities of the government. It may bring about the resignation of the Montian Government, override presidential vetoes, and alter the constitution. To make changes to the constitution, amendments must be approved by two successive parliaments, with an election cycle in between, or passed as an emergency law with a 2/3 majority.

2018 Election Outcomes
In the 2018 general election, party affiliates in the Freedom Allied represented by the Union of City-States, Parliamentary Collective and the Brotherhood of Domains won 141 seats out of 240 contested seats (59%) compared to the People Voice coalition winning 99 seats (41%). Therefore, the Chairman of the Union of the City-States, Dr. Moises Tullar, MP was elected President of Springmont for the period 2018-2020. Leader of the Parliamentary Collective Party, General (ret.) Rubin Rubin Ilacqua, MP was appointed Vice President. As expected All Freedom maintained their status during the 2016-2018 general election by winning it again. The announcement of three-term president Davis Deltoro not to run for the fourth term has made a positive impact on Freedom Allied, which has prompted the people to keep voting. The People Voice until the end of the campaign has yet to produce a convincing presidential candidate, with two of the three party leaders being former military personnel with no experience in state administration and civilian affairs, giving Freedom Allied another bonus.
