| Although Robert Swann lacked the great charisma of his father, his name alone was enough to build a successful campaign, a fact of which the Unionist Party were well aware when they paired him to run with George L. Graham. With the Swann name attached to the bill, the concerns about Graham's age and health seemed mitigated and the UNP made a successful run at the election, defeating popular FLM candidate Arthur Gaddy. Graham's administration was largely uneventful until late 1962 when his health began failing. Swann had essentially taken over daily operations by the time Graham passed away in January 1963. He deftly navigated the presidency for the following year which was enough to make him the face of the UNP for the 1964 election. Swann won in a landslide. His presidency was a good one and although he could deal with crisis, such as violent outbursts in the rising Civil Rights Movement, his passivity in matters of politics and legislature had worn thin on the voters by the end of his term. The UNP still nominated him to run for a second term but Swann came in fourth place among the major parties in the 1970 election and he retired from public office. | Although Robert Swann lacked the great charisma of his father, his name alone was enough to build a successful campaign, a fact of which the Nationalist Party were well aware when they paired him to run with George L.

| Despite the fact that she was part of Osorio's campaign and leader of the CLP, Ellen Larsen's public stand against Osorio was viewed by the people as noble and courageous. Despite the black eye being worn by the CLP, her charismatic personality and sharp political mind helped her forge a new team and identity and she ran for president on a card with respected senator Carl J. Berry. On a mission statement of progressive ideas and laws, Larsen pulled ahead in a hotly contested race and became the 15th president of Torland, and first female top official in Torland history. Larsen's administration is considered a successful one, even if conspiracy theorists remain steadfast in their belief that she was the one to set up Osorio for political gain. Larsen helped pioneer greater international trade connection and bring relief to the national debt deficit. | Despite the fact that she was part of Osorio's campaign and leader of the CLP, Ellen Larsen's public stand against Osorio was viewed by the people as noble and courageous.

Larsen helped pioneer greater international trade connection and bring relief to the national debt deficit while also campaigning for human rights and more progressive acceptance of minority groups in Torland. |
