Alverian Senate Elections, 10/15/21

Alverian Senate Elections were held on 10/15/21. They were the first Senate elections held after the passage of the District Reapportionment Act, which divided the seats of the Senate into 2 classes and eliminated District 5. This was also the first election following the Term Extension Act, which increases the Senate term to 4 weeks. All 8 seats were up for election, with Class 1 seats being elected to the full 1 month term, and Class 2 seats being elected to a 2 week term, with a Class 2 full term election taking place on 10/29/21.
In the 9/17/21, the last regularly scheduled election for all Senate seats, the Phalanx won 7 seats, the Corvus won 2 seats, and the Ba'ath Party won 1 seat. The Phalanx's majority narrowed to 6 seats after Spudmn of District 4 resigned on 10/3/21, with the vacant seat being filled by an appointed independent Senator who won the subsequent special election for the seat. 
In the election, the Corvus made a net gain of two seats, flipping a seat from the Phalanx in District 1 and gaining an open seat in District 2. The Phalanx maintained their narrow majority by winning the Vice Presidency.
These are additionally the first Senate elections since 1/8/21 in which the Ba'ath Party did not run a candidate, with their last incumbent Senator being redistricted out of the dissolved District 5.
