Hello, Just thought I should share this interesting situation in one of the states in my country: There was a governorship election yesterday and the electoral commission declared the result inconclusive, due to the difference in the votes of the 2 top candidates. The leading candidate died after announcement of the election status. There then arise a question about what the next action could be: - The constitution has a provision for installing the deputy governor if the governor elect dies, but in this case there is no governor elect yet. - The electoral act has a provision to replace a candidate who dies before the election, but in this case election has been conducted just that it's inconclusive and electoral body is yet to announce next step of action. The legislative arm of government cannot update constitution overnight to address this scenario neither can such be done on the electoral act. It remains a puzzle that has been left in the hands of the judicial system of the country to address. Why are my saying all these, it's to emphasis that one may not be able to capture all the possible scenarios until they are experienced and when they are experienced, the board and community should be ready to address them on case basis, including updating the governing document if applicable. It is my hope that we face this realistically going forward. Thanks for reading the short story,(apologies in advance if this annoys anyone) do have a wonderful week ahead.
