Ed Feigenbaum pointed me
to this
Indianapolis Star article involving what happens under Indiana
law when an elected candidate for office is declared ineligible because of
a prior felony conviction. The court ruled that the loser---in this case,
the incumbent---gets to take office for the entire term. Apparently Indiana's
law has no provision for a special election.
