Council of States 1782



The 1782 Council of States election netted in the re-election of Cress as Praetor, a shock to many of his peers who expected to oust him before the election and retain their super majority. Instead, Cress survived a leadership spill and went on to retain a slim majority of one seat. The Populist party also elected a new leader, Marcus Delzen, after ousting Walter Vern.
