Protect the Republic

Protect the Republic was a voting campaign propaganda poster, encouraging people to vote for Leia Organa for First Senator. It depicts an image of Leia in front of a red background with four X-Wings soaring up, with the words on the top and bottom, both of which were in High Galactic, stating, respectively, "Protect the Republic" and "Vote Leia First Senator."
==Behind the scenes==
The image was created by Random House art director Scott Biel.
It was originally created for a promo poster for the 2016 novel Bloodline, whose cover strongly resembles the poster. There were two promo posters created for the book: One was the standard version, and the other was a defaced version with Leia's face replaced with that of Vader's visage and having the word "Liar" written over (referring to the in-universe revelation among the New Republic senators that Leia was the daughter of Darth Vader and losing a lot of the public's trust as a result).
