election Console Command

The election console command in Stellaris begins a ruler election in your empire immediately.

In Stellaris, ruler elections occur in certain types of governments such as Democracies or Oligarchies where leaders are chosen through voting.

In the normal course of gameplay, these elections happen at fixed intervals. However, using this command, a player can trigger a ruler election instantly rather than waiting for the scheduled time.

You might find this command helpful if you’re not satisfied with your current ruler and want to hasten the change process.

It is also beneficial when you wish to reshape your strategy according to the new ruler's traits as each ruler comes with their unique traits that can give different bonuses to the empire.
