Drop the terms "opposition" and "government" during election time

In the developed (I am not using First World) countries, no one calls the party in government the government forever, especially during election time. Similarly, no one calls the largest opposition party or parties the opposition all the time. This is jumping to conclusions that that party will forever remain "the government" and the "other"/"others" will be the opposition. Drop the terms.

at current moment there's no constitution, so there's no govt... can only call the lightning jokers - incumbent!
as for every other party that have succesfully been nominated & rallying for your mandate - contenders!
