This is no longer an issue on Dwilight, as the voting system has changed 
completely.  It now creates a referendum at the beginning of first turn 
in which a position is vacant, and not only does everyone have to vote 
in that particular referendum to have their vote counted, the people 
running have to explicitly click a link to be official candidates on the 
ballot.  So it is impossible to be elected just because no one did anything.

...It also means that any time a position becomes vacant, unless you can 
get every single person in the realm to vote (which is darn hard in a 
realm of any size), it will stay vacant for 5 days, thus making removal 
from office a *much* more serious thing.

Pian en Luries has already had to re-elect our Judge, what, 3 times? 
It's a royal pain ;-)
