Original Note:
Although it may seem undemocratic not to hold an election, lots of countries have postponed elections until after a war. During WW2 the UK didn’t hold local and general elections until the war in Europe had ended. In France, elections were not held until after the war ended. https://www.iwm.org.uk/history/how-winston-churchill-and-the-conservative-party-lost-the-1945-election
