I know the scenario I am about to lay out could never happen, hell, I don't think it is even possible. But, what if they held an election and no one voted? Seriously, not one single person voted in the election. What happens then? Again, I know it will never, ever happen, but just for the sake of exercising the old brain cells, what would happen if not one person voted?

Upon a very small amount of research, I have found that various elected positions have a method for an election where no one wins. Some jurisdictions have methods to appoint a person to the office. But, some don't. I doubt I will ever find the answer because I just don't care that much and I am not willing to devote the effort it would take. Besides, I think there would be a near endless number of answers because of the number of jurisdictions involved.

Possibly off topic---but related: I pondered the very real possibility last night that I might be forced to vote entirely for the "least" candidates
I simply have failed to find even one---with party affiliation ignored completely, that I can be enthusiastic about.
I also am sad to say that I will most likely, for the first time in my life, vote for more Democrats and third party candidates than the impostors hiding behind the now defiled republican label.
