James Dewar was elected to the Senate in 3148. Dewar's older sister, Katy, was elected to the Senate in the same election. He was known to be extraordinarily ambitious but his support for defeated leadership candidates did not help him move up in the Senate. He supported Lou Borjas in 3151 and Marlin DeGroote in 3154. The leadership election generated a lot of interest due to both Dewar and his sister running for the leadership. The two were constantly running neck and neck in the polls and ultimately Dewar won on the last round, beating out his sister by less than 1%.

abstract
  • James Dewar was elected to the Senate in 3148. Dewar's older sister, Katy, was elected to the Senate in the same election. He was known to be extraordinarily ambitious but his support for defeated leadership candidates did not help him move up in the Senate. He supported Lou Borjas in 3151 and Marlin DeGroote in 3154. After the resignation of Josh Grierson-Ryrie, Dewar strongly considered running for the leadership but was unable to do so because Elwood Quilty became leader after being appointed by National Executive Committee. Quilty died soon after and was replaced by Fidelma Ormonde. Ormonde soon announced that she would not be contesting the leadership and Dewar entered the race to replace her. The leadership election generated a lot of interest due to both Dewar and his sister running for the leadership. The two were constantly running neck and neck in the polls and ultimately Dewar won on the last round, beating out his sister by less than 1%. However, James Dewar was criticized for not naming his sister to the front bench. Instead, she was named Chairwoman of the Athosian Free Democratic Party. Dewar also had to face a divided Senate caucus. A majority of the caucus supported his sister in the leadership contest. Even more troubling was that he did not receive a lot of support from the Executive Committee. An overwhelmingly majority supported his sister and his snub of her did not go over well. In the 3164 elections, Dewar claimed not even 6% in his bid to become Supreme Executive. The party also lost 37 seats in the Senate. Dewar announced his intention to stand down on election night but he remained the interim leader until an election could be held a month later. His sister won the election.
