Yes. Theoretically if... 1) Your majority of voters that put people in the upper house are conservative... and 2) You get to annoy the voters enough so that they get highly militant and thus turn reactionary.

But that's not easy because in an absolute monarchy the rich people are the ones who usually vote for the Upper House. If you try to annoy them somehow you'll get a wide enough effect that will annoy other people, causing lots of revolts, and even the conservative voters may drift to liberal. It's no guarantee that those people will get reactionary.

I am in need of that too. I need to revoke Non-Secret and Secret Ballots reform.

Yes, it's a possibility, but if rebels "win", I feel "defeated".
I wanna do it the Machiavellian way.

Is it even possible to get a reactionary majority in the upper house?


It is. I just had it in my current Germany playthrough. Was more luck though.
