Gaius Turns the Other Way to Face the Senate

Gaius is elected tribune again for a second term. He makes that symbolically clear by not facing the senate when he's talking, by turning the other way to face the ordinary people. And we're told that he didn't even campaign to be tribune. It is almost as popular a claim. Yes. They love him so much. Thereis actually a confusing account of that in apian that the senatorial faction can't find more than nine tribunes, so that he gets shoved in as the tenth. Ye, yes, they absolutely phoned a tenth.
