|[[Mark Edwin]]
The Socialist Party is contesting 408 of the 410 local government seats and have published a party list with 60 names. The Socialists were, prior to 3019, a major political force in Wiltshire - losing favour to the Labour Party in 3019. However, under the leadership of Tony Beck, the left-wing Socialist Party has published a plan to recapture the country's support in this election. In the report, the new Leader lays out plans for pro-nationalization, pro-higher corporate taxes and a stronger anti-fascism message. The Socialists have turned to the centre of their 3019 stances and have moved away from their anti-capitalistic messaging, more towards that of former Prime Minister Frank Eddington. The Socialist Party is pro-universal healthcare.

The Körperschaftlich Reich Verband (Corporate Party) is contesting all 410 local government seats and has published a party list with 60 names. The KRV is the sole-legal ruling party of the [[New Corporate Republic]]. The Party is a fascist, right-wing party that is aggressively anti-Tauran and pro-NCR. They are standing on a platform of the re-birth of an independent Wiltshire Reich. It is unlikely the KRV will form the government, however, with a strong presence in the Assembly it may put whomever ends up as Prime Minister in a hard position when going against the NCR and it's policies.

=== '''Labour''' ===
|Sid Velum
The Labour Party is contesting 399 local government seats and has published a party list with 59 names on it. The Labour Party was formed in 3019 as an alternative to the "far-left" policies the Socialist Party was turning to. The party had widespread support and formed the government between April and June of that year. The party, which is pro-universal healthcare and a broadly centre-left platform, saw another resurgence when [[Henry Campbell-Trenneman]] formed a government prior to the NCR conquest of Wiltshire. The party, now led by Mark Edwin, is attempting to re-capture the flame that Campbell-Trenneman used to enter government last year.
