"I can't really speak for Minister Dempsey," Harry said, mostly to be diplomatic. "But I think the old guard's going to be hard pressed to let much through anytime soon." It had been hard enough to get voting reform passed, and that was a months' long process on its own. Not that Harry had expected it to be quick. Honestly, if things had dragged on even longer than they had, he wouldn't have been surprised, either. If it was a worthwhile pursuit, than it was worth the time.

Theoretically, more reform could come with enough time, but it had taken so much effort to get here, Harry didn't have high hopes. "Then again, with more people having a say in things now, they might need to give it more consideration."
