We are facing this problem on Fronen. Being a republic, we have monthly elections for the realm council except ruler which is quarterly.
The election day was a few days ago but no one stepped up in the banker election and as a result it failed. Since we already have a banker, another auto election didn't trigger (the one which triggers when the position is vacated) and consequently we don't have a way to appoint/elect a new banker. As with all failed elections, the peasants are complaining about it and I don't know if it will stop or continue till the next month. I believe this will result in morale loss in all regions if left unchecked.
So can anyone help me out?
