Elections to the Galactic Senate took place in three-stages after the Ruusan Reformations of 1,000 BBY. Planetary governments appointed delegates to subsector assemblies. Subsector assemblies elected the members of regional sector assemblies, which in turn elected the actual senators who would serve on Coruscant. A law passed by the Galactic Republic in 719 BBY made each regional senator the commander-in-chief of any regional sector or subsector military force in their respective constituency.

abstract
  • Elections to the Galactic Senate took place in three-stages after the Ruusan Reformations of 1,000 BBY. Planetary governments appointed delegates to subsector assemblies. Subsector assemblies elected the members of regional sector assemblies, which in turn elected the actual senators who would serve on Coruscant. The subsector assemblies were the pre-Ruusan Reformations sector assemblies that were still appointed by planetary regimes, except they actually elected the senators. However, only a fraction of these pre-Ruusan senators were actually seated in the Galactic Senate, though senators without voting rights in the Senate could still petition the Senate on behalf of their pre-Ruusan sectors. The subsector and regional sector assemblies after the Ruusan Reformations in 1,000 BBY had the right to raise their own interstellar military forces by hiring mercenaries or consolidating planetary defense forces. During the Clone Wars, these military forces were officially part of the Grand Army of the Republic, and, with the rise of Palpatine's Galactic Empire in 19 BBY, these sector and subsector forces were often—but not always—absorbed into the Imperial Armed Forces. A law passed by the Galactic Republic in 719 BBY made each regional senator the commander-in-chief of any regional sector or subsector military force in their respective constituency.
