November 4, 1965 - Portuguese General Election:

PRIME MINISTERS OF PORTUGAL:
Antonio de Oliveira Salazar (UN) - 1932-1953
National Union Majority - 1932-1953
Humberto Delgado (UF/SD) - 1953-?
United Front Majority - 1953-1956
Social Democratic Majority - 1956-?

Elections to the Portuguese Parliament were held on November 4, 1965. The incumbent government of Humberto Delgado was re-elected in a landslide, securing another four years in government for the Social Democratic Party. However, even before the election it was clear that Delgado would not serve the entire term, as the Constitution of 1954 stipulated that the Prime Minister could only remain in office for fourteen consecutive years before they were term-limited. The "race to succeed Delgado" was a media spectacle in Portugal, and would eventually be won by Antonio Ramalho Eanes.

December 12, 1965 - Brazilian General Election:

PRESIDENTS OF BRAZIL:
Getulio Vargas (SD) - 1951-1955
Cafe Filho (SD) - 1955-1956
Luis Carlos Prestes (AL) - 1956-1959
Henrique Teixeira Lott (SD) - 1959-1960
Luis Carlos Prestes (AL) - 1960-?

Elections for the office of President of the Brazilian Socialist Republic were held on December 12, 1965, a mere five months after the previous ones. Incumbent President Luis Carlos Prestes had lost that election handily, and had voided the results. Consequently, a second election was held. Prestes' primary opposition- Lionel Brizola- had been murdered well before the election, and was therefore allowed to remain on the ballot. However, Prestes was so unpopular that he actually lost to the deceased Brizola by a margin of roughly 16%, requiring intervention by the People's Electoral Commission. Prestes was sworn in as President of Brazil once again during a private ceremony at Palacio da Alvorado on January 17, 1965, which was followed by a more public ceremony at Palacio do Planalto on January 22.

Operation Rain Focus was a military operation undertaken by the United States Marine Corps under the orders of President Hubert Humphrey. The goal of the mission was to secure the Amazon River Delta on behalf of the pro-American Amazonas Indigenous Revolt. The operation occurred between December 13 and December 17, and was accomplished successfully with only 13 American casualties versus nearly 1,000 Brazilian casualties.

Elections for the Parliament of Austria were held on March 6, 1966. The Incumbent government of Bruno Kreisky attempted to defend its majority. On election day, they would fail to do this, although they would comfortably win first place. President of the Republic Franz Jonas (also of the SPO) gave Kreisky the mandate to form a government on March 17, which Kreisky would accept. While most observers expected the Chancellor to begin negotiations for a grand coalition with the People's Party, he would shock the country by entering into an agreement with the Communist Party, presumably because it gave him more authority. The reaction to this would be fierce, with over a hundred thousand protesting the agreement in Vienna alone.

PRESIDENTS OF THE AMAZONAS REPUBLIC:

Marina Cruz Menezes (PdPI) - January 1967 - January 1972

Elections for the newly-created Presidency of Amazonas were held on November 10, 1966. Three parties contested the race- the democratic socialist Indigenous People's Party, the big-tent liberal Republican Union, and the Libertarian Socialist Worker's Party. 47 year-old Marina Cruz Menezes, one of the members of the joint leadership council, would easily win the election on a platform of upholding democracy and redistribution of wealth.
