"I Love Democracy" achievement requires you to pass the "Captain's Authority" (under Rule) policy with unanimous support from the council.
This challenging feat becomes available during Chapter 5 of the story :
To unlock Captain's Authority, you must first pass three preceding laws from either the Guard Enforcers or Guided Voting branches. For example, you could enact Guard Enforcers, Steward's Militia, and Martial Law. These laws centralize power and pave the way for your ultimate authority.

Achieving 100% approval is tricky, as there are usually a few stubborn council members who oppose the motion. Here's how to sway the vote in your favor:

• Maximize tension in your city. Counter-intuitively, higher tension leads to more "yes" votes for Captain's Authority. Increase tension by passing certain laws, constructing specific buildings, and most effectively, by increasing cold and diseases wich are powerful tension drivers: Try turning off your generator, removing residential districts, or transferring colonists back to the main city, consider temporarily disabling hospitals and allowing squalor to spread. Even with high tension, you may face one or two holdouts.
• This is where the Secret Police comes in handy. Use them to remove council seats from the most aggressive faction (Faithkeepers or Stalwarts) or from the opposition if you're still short on votes.
• For any neutral votes, attempt negotiations or employ Guided Voting. While Guided Voting doesn't prevent the achievement, its outcome can be unpredictable. Save your game before using this option, as results may vary upon reloading.

Remember, timing is crucial. The Captain's Authority law only becomes available when civil war is imminent, so be prepared to act swiftly. With careful manipulation of city conditions and strategic use of your political tools, you can achieve the ultimate display of "democracy" in New London.
