Here is the official verbiage from the Inspector General:
βIt is my duty to announce that the Region 17 Coordinator election has concluded, with LGEN Bran Stimpson, based on the polling of the chapters of Region 17, wining in the election phase. He is hereby ordered to take command of Starbase 17 and the 17th Fleet. LGEN Stimpson shall serve a
