Vote of No Confidence
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
- Queen Amidala: "If this body is not capable of action, I suggest new leadership is needed. I move for a Vote of No Confidence in Chancellor Valorum's leadership."
- The Galactic Senate's response: "(quiet conversation)...VOTE NOW! VOTE NOW! VOTE NOW!"
- ―Queen Padmé Amidala in the Galactic Senate[src]
A Vote of No Confidence was a decision to remove the Supreme Chancellor from office due to a lack of approval in the Galactic Senate. It was also used in the Imperial Interim Ruling Council.
Finis Valorum was voted out of office this way in 32 BBY, resulting in an election for Chancellor.
Under the New Republic Senate, a Vote of No Confidence could recall the Chief of State, as well as the Supreme Commander.
