Sandra McClean (KG; incumbent)
Conservative Democratic Congressional Conference candidate
James Brand (KW)

The election to officially nominate the House of Commons' candidate for Praetor will commence on January 4, 2019, one day after the 76th Congress takes office. The Social Republican Conference has put forward the incumbent Praetor, Sandra McClean, the representative from Kalegav's 12th riding while the Conservative Democratic Conference has put forward James Brand, the representative from Keiwasta's 4th riding.

McClean has been in Congress for only three terms but quickly rose among her party's ranks to become the first female Praetor of Congress. As Praetor, she has led the opposition to President Carlyle's agenda and together with the Conservative Democratic leadership, passed through several bipartisan pieces of legislation that were signed into law by the President. She has served on the Joint Committee on the National Budget, helping to pass the first balanced budget in 45 years, the House Committee on Ethics, and the Joint Committee on Regulations and Administration.

Brand has been in Congress for nearly 30 years and is currently the oldest person in Congress at the age of 84. He has served on the House Committee for Tenochtitlanese Affairs, the House Committee on National Security, the House Committee on the Armed Forces and Veterans, and the Joint Committee on Matters of State, garnering a reputation as a shrewd negotiator who has earned enormous respect of both aisles of Congress.

Welcome to the 76th Congress

Members of the House of Commons and the Senate will take their oaths of office today, January 3, 2019, representing their districts and states and continuing the tradition of public service. We wish them the best of luck and and a productive term in office. We also pay a farewell and a wholehearted 'thank you' to the outgoing members of Congress, who we know gave their best in service to their constituents and to their country. We also look forward to the election of the next Praetor of Congress tomorrow, January 4. The House will hold their vote on their official nomination Friday morning. The Senate will then vote to confirm or reject the House's choice a few hours later. The results will be posted here, as usual.
