The 1st Assembly of Esportiva elections in Nova Anglicana to elect all 10 members of the Nova Anglican delegation to the 1st Assembly of Esportiva was held in November concurrently with a referendum on adopting the Espo as the Nova Anglican currency and regularly scheduled local elections in Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador.

==Background==
Nova Anglicana joined the Esportivan Union earlier this year, with the House of Deputies approving the Treaty of Montfort by a comfortable 64-36 margin, and the Senate by a somewhat narrower vote of 17-13. Although there was sharp debate in Parliament about the Treaty, ultimately, it prevailed with not only government support, but also limited crossbench and opposition support. Prime Minister Josephine Clark announced that elections to the Assembly of Esportiva would be held in November at the same time as local elections in Newfoundland and Labrador and Quebec and that a referendum on joining the Esportivan Central Bank would be held with the other elections. Thus, voters faced up to three separate votes on their November ballot.

Earlier in the year, the Esportivan Union announced that Rutupiae in the NAAZE would be the new headquarters of the Esportivan Courts of Justice. Additionally, Clark decided to select People's Party Senator Colby Blackburn as the Nova Anglican representative for the Council of Esportiva in a cross-partisan move. Blackburn, a conservative and businessman with interests in Esportiva, maintained a pro-Esportivan stance throughout negotiations of the Treaty of Montfort, and voted in favor in the Senate. Although some in her party were dissatisfied with this selection, the media predicted that Clark's decision to choose a member of the opposition as a Councilmember would earn her support from independent and right-leaning voters.

As the election was held concurrently with a referendum on adopting the Espo as the Nova Anglican currency, the election was widely regarded in the media as a referendum on Clark's pro-Esportivan stance.
==Electoral system==

The 10 members of the Nova Anglican delegation will be elected in six constituencies, corresponding to the five provinces and one administrative zone, utilising single transferable vote. One member each will be elected from the NAAZE, Prince Edward Island, and Quebec, with two members being elected in each of New Brunswick and Newfoundland & Labrador, and three members will be elected from Nova Scotia.

==Results==

Final results saw the Progressive Justice Party elect 5 MAE's (1 NAAZE, 1 NB, 1 NL, 2 NS), the People's Party elect 3 MAE's (1 NB, 1 NL, 1 NS), and the Stewardship and Libertarian Parties elect 1 each (PEI and QC, respectively). The SP and LP were able to elect their members by way of an electoral agreement in PEI and QC, respectively, which saw the PJP and PP candidates stand down in favor of their alliance partners. Although the Liberal Secularists tallied 8.1% of the first-preference vote, like the LP, they did not benefit from an electoral alliance and thus did not elect any MAE's. The election saw 16 parties field candidates, the most for any single election in Nova Anglican history. Turnout was 64.4%, down from 88.1% from the snap election the previous year, and less than the 69.5% of registered voters who voted in the Espo referendum.
