Cola Quis

Cola Quis is a male Twi'lek, senator of Ryloth to the New Republic and member of the Commerce Council. He was not particularly famous. He served the New Republic during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy.

Later, after the Fall of Coruscant, Quis managed to reach Dac, where the New Republic regrouped. Due to the death of the Chief of State of the New Republic, a new campaign to choose a Chief of State began, and Quis was nominated as one of the candidates along with Cal Omas, Fyor Rodan and Ta'laam Ranth. Thou Quis did began with a good lead, it was soon obvious that he would never get the post: The race was mainly among the other three candidates.

The initial results gave 35% of the votes to Rodan; 28% to Omas; 18% to Ranth and 10% to Quis (There was an amount of abstentions and votes scattered among other minor candidates, surprisingly including Pwoe). Senator of Kashyyyk Triebakk (as Omas' representative) tried to convince Quis to give his votes to Omas, as it was clear that Quis couldn't win. Rodan also tried to get Quis' votes.

Ranth increased her percentage to 22, being then able to deliver the election to one of the main candidates, while Quis dropped out of the race when Omas promised to name him chairmanship of the Commerce Council plus midlevel ministry jobs for several of his friends, and an office of the Kellmer Institute of Higher Learning for Ryloth.
