Whips

In politics, "whips" are officials responsible for ensuring party members vote according to the party’s position on legislation. They act as organizers and communicators, reminding members of voting deadlines, gauging support levels, and rallying votes. Whips help maintain party discipline and cohesion, often offering incentives or addressing concerns to encourage unity. Their role is crucial for passing legislation, as they coordinate to secure the necessary votes and manage internal party dynamics during legislative processes.
