The 2019 Liosol general election was Liosol's 40th general election, held on Tuesday, 21 May, 2019. The Yellow Coalition defeated four other candidates, including the ruling alliance's nominee Soe Medan, resulting in Pra Densok's selection as the 23rd Prime Minister of Liosol.
Background
The 2019 general election took place shortly after a vote of no confidence in the House of Status. Prime Minister Goe and the Ministry were removed from office resulting in a snap election. This was the second time a vote of no confidence removed a ruling party from office.

Results
Jebba Co reported early Wednesday morning that the Yellow Coalition had won 82 seats and would form a new government with Pra Densok as its leader. Pra unexpectedly announced that he would nominate Eul Lana, the previous Prime Minister following Goe Jegan's removal from office, to continue in her previous capacity as Chancellor of the House of Status. The United Right commended Pra for this bipartisan act and "promised to act in good faith during his term."
Analysis
This election ended nearly four decades of unrestricted rule by the ring-wing, conservative parties of the Kajeth. Pra's win is owed to many factors: the Deunic papers and Operation Badol, shifts in the White Party changing it from a primarily centrist party to a leftist one, the Manist Party's withdrawal from the United Right in 2018 after the "unfair appointment of Goe Jegan as Prime Minister by way of the oligarchic Blue Cabinet", creation of the Absolutist and Republican coalitions - two groups that formerly caucused with the United Right, anger at the leading parties' inability to handle foreign and domestic matters, and the vote of No Confidence against the former Prime Minister.
