Join the new world

Well its time for another round of Stats, this time on the German Presidential Elections!

Unlike last time this collaboration will cover changes in the last year from December 08- December 09





President Ages

As Expected, German Presidents are becoming younger and younger with each election, as the new(er) generations start to gain power.

(The Graph is a little bit weird older presidents will be closer to the bottom, Presidents will only be shown once even if they had more than one term. The exact age can be found on the bottom of the graph)

Facts (Last Year)
Youngest President of Germany (PTOers included): Adam Blayer
Youngest President of Germany (PTOers excluded): The German Eagle
Oldest President of Germany: DKN
God Rest his soul, please take a moment of silence

Though Presidents are getting younger, Donnie Bronco (I’m not implying your old Mr. President) is an exception.

Please Observe
Each “bump” has 4 different presidents which decrease in age and then get older again. The humps are divided by a president before the Process is started again

Prediction:
I believe that Donnie Bronco is the beginning of another Process, and another bump will be created again with younger presidents






Political Spectrum of Presidents

Germany has always showed a strong Centrist alignment, as shown in the President and Congressional Elections.

(This Graph will show each Term, Alignment is based upon elected presidents’ party and how it classifies itself)

Facts (Last Year)
Current Tren😛 Going to Right spectrum from Left
Current Alignment: Center
Previous Alignment: Center/Left

Please Observe
The Last 3 Terms have mirrored the 3 terms before that.

Prediction
Since we see a very clear pattern, I believe that in the first few months of 2010 there will be another Right or Center/Right President.





Voter Turnout

As Germanys’ population continues to increase, the voter turnout has risen.

(This Graph shows turnout, the different colors represent the election and term of which presidents. The exact voter turnout will be on the bottom of the graph)

Facts (Last year)
Lowest Voter Turnout: December 2008
Highest Voter Turnout: November 2009
Biggest Gain during Gobba Presidency
Biggest Loss during Starkad Rorlikson Presidency

The Voter Turnout is an iffy thing; since the history has been convoluted it is impossible to know the exact cause of the different turnout. Certain Things come into play such as PTO groups, German foreign aid to other regions around the world, and countless other reasons. All will Increase or decrease the turnout.

But no matter how you put it, German Voter turnout has increased, as the population does.

Please Observe
After the PTO group lost there president, voter turnout went down (PTOers leaving the country)
Even if this is considered Gobbas’ administration still has the biggest raise in voter turnout

Prediction
Even Excluding all other factors, voter turnout has increased drastically. I believe this will continue, as long as our population continues to increase.





Party Votes per Official Party Candidate

Lots of new Parties have emerged in the last few months, and the war between SPED and PPD rages on. Each side tries to regain the presidency, and SPED tries to hold on to there massive amount of congresspersons.

(Parties that supported a candidate out of there own party; these votes will not be shown as there parties votes but the main candidates parties)

Facts (Last year)
Not to much facts about this one just lots of data

OMG still shows big numbers, after all this time. SPED made its debut with flying colors, but since has dropped down to 118 voters exact, in the last two election. PPD is growing slowly in votes for its party.

Please Observe
Germanias way (AKA the shoot party) is shown for all elections involving shoot even if not shoots primary party.

Prediction
Hard to make a prediction on this one but I’ll do my best
OMG: Gains votes
SPE😨 Uncertain, they could level out, then bounce back up, or not recover. But I believe they will rebound and gain more.
PP😨 Will continue to gain slowly
FD😨 Currently FDD has lost almost half of there voter turnout from the last congressional elections, and if they are to ever regain some power, they would need something big, especially in the presidential field.




Percent of Votes attained by President

The President usually attains more than 50% of the votes, but never has a president attained more than 75% of the votes in an election with at least 2 people.

(The exact percent is not shown it can be found on the excel sheet below)

Facts (Last Year)
Highest Percentage (including only one candidate): DKN, January
Highest Percentage (excluding only one candidate): Gobba, in August elections by only about 0.7 percent, over the next forerunner for percentage, Gobba XD
Lowest Percentage: Starkad Rorlikson, May
Average Percentage: 62.6%

The Percentage of Votes attained by the winner is pretty bumpy

Please Observe
Only two presidents have ever attained less than 50%.
Starkad Rorlikson, 2nd term, 42%
Donnie Bronco, 1st term, 48%

Prediction
The Percentage of votes has always been aligned within that 25% range between 50 and 75, with 3 exceptions, only 2 if you count elections with at least 2 people. I believe this wont change any time soon.
