Social Democratic Union: Difference between revisions

The successful removal of the largely unpopular Lukyanov and the reversal of his unpopular policies thrust the SDU into the national spotlight and secured the party a landslide victory in the 1972 elections. Securing a majority in the Chamber of Deputies and the presidency, the SDU (and its coalition partners) continued to fight remnants of policies that allowed for pervasive corruption. The party's ongoing popularity led to the party retaining their majority in the Chamber of Deputies and securing a majority in the Federal Council in the 1974 elections, giving the party its first government trifecta.
