(Latin Steampunk) 1853 Riograndense general election

The 1853 Riograndense general election was held on April 2 in order to renew the country's Senate and Chamber of Deputies. This new election expanded the number of senators to sixteen. This General Assembly would subsequently elect the country's president in 1855. Held during a continuing economic recession, this election further marked the decline of the Republican Party. Despite this continued loss of popularity, the Republican Party was reconducted into a majority in both houses.
