The Voskian political parties are normally identified by the abbreviations of their Voskian names. Full names of the parties exist however in Voskian, Gurdian and Romansh as primary language and are translated, if needed, into the other languages.

History

The Voskian parliament always had a large number of parties represented in it, until the election threshold was raised before the elections of 2010. From 1946 until the military coup 1993, the most important parties were the Kōdōdģē-Ģiēnikē Pàrtiā (K-ĢP, Social-Democratic Party) and the Vēdzē-Ģiēnikē Pàrtiā (V-ĢP, Liberal-Democratic Party). The prime ministers were most often members of one of these parties, although other parties, such as the Katūvikē Enōnēa (KE, Catholic Union) had their chances too. After the restoration of parliament in 1997 the Protàşvētij Dēmukracieş (PD, Champions of the Republic) became more influential, although they had their moments already in the '80 as well.

Current situation

Currently represented in the Voskian parliament are:

  • Kōdōdģē-Ģiēnikē Pàrtiā (K-ĢP, Social-Democratic Party), 44 seats
  • Protàşvētij Dēmukracieş (PD, Champions of the Republic), 42 seats
  • Vēdzē-Ģiēnikē Pàrtiā (V-ĢP, Liberal-Democratic Party), 37 seats
  • Meso Vēdzō (MV, Centre Liberals), 33 seats
  • Mōnarģisc Spundie (MS, Monarchist Union), 32 seats
  • Irtiaziakē Pàrtiā ’02 (IP'02, Irtiazist Party), 22 seats
  • Kōdikē Pàrtiā (KP, Communist Party), 9 seats
  • Pàrtiā Agurkoded (PA, Agrarian Party), 7 seats
  • Spundie Socialisc Agurkoded (SSA, Union of Socialist Agrarians), 3 seats

The governing parties are rendered in bold, the opposition parties in italics.

The PA and the SSA presented themselves with a joint list; on its own, the SSA would not have been able to secure sufficient votes to make it into parliament.
