Back in Moscow, it was already late February, and the Duma Election was about to unfold!
Wang Ye, of course, had no time to travel anymore; he had to stay put in Moscow and direct his faction's entire election campaign.
In addition, those who had previously expressed their interest in joining Wang Ye's faction were now taking action.
They were leaving the first and second factions, as well as various minor factions, going through the procedure to resign from their Duma parliamentarian work, and formally swearing allegiance to Wang Ye's faction.
So it continued chaotically until around March 20, finally stabilizing somewhat before the official start of the election.
In fact, this period before the Duma Election, namely February and March, was a bit like the "transfer window" in football.
Congressmen had to start considering their future paths.
