In the midst of chaos, by mid-April, all electoral district results were announced, and the dust had settled.
As Wang Ye had anticipated, the First Faction's deep-rooted strength prevailed, and though the process was harrowing, the outcome was satisfactory.
They triumphed in their stronghold, the St. Petersburg electoral district, and even snatched a portion of seats from Krov's grasp in the Moscow electoral district.
In the final moments, a stunning comeback unfolded, as they secured one hundred and fifty-five seats, narrowly defeating Wang Ye's faction and ranking first!
Wang Ye's faction slipped to the second place, securing only five seats in the final stage, totaling one hundred and fifty seats, and ranking second, just five seats behind the first faction.
The plan he and Grezlov had painstakingly devised had been perfectly executed, with the only blemish being the fewer-than-expected seats won by the first faction.
