In the article you cited, there is no case law associated with it. Sputnick got their info from where? nothing cited. There is a difference with voluntarily resigning from office and losing re-election. Also, no evidence from the article you cited to indicate whether the issue of jurisdiction was ever litigated.. probably not. Therefore, there is NO precedent. The only way to create a precedent is to litigate the issue and have a court rule on it.
