After Maggs' retirement, the New Party Committee initiated a reform, and seemingly unrelated things are in fact inevitably related.

During his reign, his personal influence was enough to cover some views and dissents within the New Party, and it can be said that as long as he decides something, it is impossible not to pass it on the committee.

The entire structure of the New Party Committee is designed to serve Maggs, ensuring to the greatest extent possible that no one interferes with Maggs's decisions when he makes important decisions.

After his retirement, the empire entered the post-Maggist era, and the New Party Committee began to restructure itself to ensure that within the New Party, the Party Committee was the largest and most authoritative class, and even the leaders of the New Party stood aside!

That's why Boworth was most upset, he looked like he was the next Maguss, but no, he was just in a cage.

The current structure of the New Party Committee consists of the leader of the New Party, a chairman of the New Party Committee, two vice-chairmen as the top tier, and the holders of important positions within the party and the governors of the states as the second tier, and then divided according to the party hierarchy, and finally divided into five strata.

Normally, when decisions are made on issues of disagreement, they vote on a bottom-up basis, but they have come up with a "points-based system."

To put it simply, the lowest members vote for the subject matter they vote for by one point, followed by two, three, five and ten.

The final vote was compared according to the cumulative scores, which, in their words, increased leadership, dominance and authority at the top, while also taking into account fairness.

In order to ensure that Bowers would not get into some trouble in the process of restructuring, they told Bowers that the chairman of the committee would not take any vote in principle during the implementation process.

This sentence touched Bowers, and the first to stand firmly on the aristocratic faction was only another vice chairman, Vice Chairman Dolly belonged to the Maggs faction, which can also be said to be neutral, and she could fight for it.

In addition, the chairman does not vote in principle, and he has already reached a tie with the aristocratic faction in terms of high-end power, and in the next class of governors and important party positions, most of the governors are members of the aristocratic faction, and members of the plebeian faction will work in the party, and he has a clear advantage.

Because the governor and the mayors of some developed cities will not stay in the imperial capital all day and do nothing, absenteeism is also a voting rule, which counts as automatic abstention.

On the contrary, members of the party who held positions were basically left to work in the imperial capital, and they became Bowers's biggest supporters.

Immediately after the downward division, the strength is relatively balanced, but overall, the difference is not particularly huge.

In the past year and a half, the New Party has launched five important votes, of which Bowers's side has won twice and lost three.

The three defeats were also the result of Bowworth's belief that there was no need to compete, and he did not lobby, and he initially believed that the new mechanism was very reasonable, and the only thing that made him dissatisfied was that the most powerful in the new party group after the reform was no longer the leader, but the leader of the new party and the three chairmen and vice-chairmen of the new party committee.

He lost his "sole" authority, and it was through this that he became increasingly dissatisfied with some of the practices that preceded Maggs's retirement, but he never showed it.

People always talk about the post-Magus era, but in this post-Magus era, Magus's influence has not decreased much, his influence on the empire is too terrible, and the influence has been too long, even if he has retired, people still can't help but think of him when faced with important choices.

After the meeting, the huge circular multi-storey conference hall was not crowded or full, and some members with important work did not rush back, and Dolly's support was not a big problem.

This was followed by the announcement of the meeting by the Chairman of the Committee, as well as a number of items that needed to be voted on, including a vote on the Acting Governor of the State of Ambiluo.

Most of the members who had returned from the field to participate in the meeting also came back for the vote.

After all, if you want to go further in the political arena, you must have some friends and henchmen, which is a must and a basic need, and the number of participants in this meeting is already the largest number of non-party major meetings.

After more than three hours of alternate reading out of some party decisions and some less important voting agendas by the two vice-presidents, the final item on the agenda has begun, a vote on the nomination of an acting governor.

"Based on our comprehensive consideration and evaluation results, the committee believes that the members of the organization named below are on the voting list, and they are ......," Bowers looked forward to the outcome of the vote, glancing at Dolly's back.

He glanced at Schnodder, who was sitting in the seats, who was whispering to the people around him, what his small group looked like could add more than twenty points to the vote.

When Dolly finished reading, the first round of voting began, and the result of the voting was somewhat surprising, Schnoder did not have an advantage, even in the case of Vice Chairman Dolly voting for Schnoder.

There are three rounds of voting, and if the results of the three rounds are unanimous, then this is the final result.

If the results of the three rounds of voting are not consistent, two rounds of supplementary voting will be held, and the winner of the three rounds of voting will be the final vote, and if there is no winner of the three rounds, two rounds of voting will continue downward.

After seven rounds of voting, there is still no winner, and the vote will be postponed to the next meeting, and more members of the New Party will be recalled for a second vote.

This is no joke, there is no such thing as a joke in politics, and any decision is related to the future development of a party, and it cannot be sloppy, nor can it be blindly voted to cater to the preferences of the minority.

After the results of the first round of voting, Bowers could not sit still, and he took the initiative to leave the rostrum and walk towards Schnoder, which was a means to make it clear that he supported Schnoder and that it was within the scope of permission.

After he spoke a few words to Schnoder, Schnoder and the people around him began to lobby for those members who had not voted for him before, which was also in line with the charter of the meeting.

As long as they can convince others to vote for them and get them on their side, the result of the vote is also valid.

During this time, the chairman of the committee went to the bathroom and made a phone call to Maggs before returning to explain the situation.

When he returned to the meeting, he had a 10-minute break, and the second round of voting began.

The result of this vote was completely different from the first one, Schnoder became the winner of this round of voting by a very large margin, and then in the process of resting, everyone began to wander around lobbying and consolidating the current situation.

In short, after more than two hours of voting in the fourth round, Schnoder won the final decision with three victories, and he will become the acting governor of Ambiluo, presiding over the day-to-day work of Ambiluo while Doolin is in a coma.

Bowers breathed a sigh of relief, he watched the calmly-looking chairman leave the table, pursed his lips and smiled, and strode towards Schnoder.

"Congratulations, Schnoder, you've won!", the almost undisguised statement made some members of the aristocratic faction look sideways, which also made the members of the commoner faction feel a kind of inspired excitement, and they all gathered around Schnoder to congratulate him.

Schnood didn't let this get arrogant either, he bent down slightly, and then stretched out his hands to clasp Boworths's palm, "It's all thanks to your nomination." ”
