The Galactic Republic Senate held an election for the role of Supreme Chancellor in 40 BBY. Finis Valorum was the successful candidate, having risen to prominence through his actions in the Stark Hyperspace War, he won through the recognition of his family's political legacy and the backing of influential families such as the Tarkins and the Kalpanas. Valorum later won re-election in 36 BBY, but was removed from office in a Vote of No Confidence near the end of his second term.
