Well, election was not unknown. For example, until the Capetians, the French kings had been elected, and until the Hapsburgs, so had the Holy Roman Emperor, although by the major nobility. Magistrates in some of the Italian city states and Swiss cantons were elected, and I believe the chief magistrate of the Netherlands was elected, although my recollection is fuzzy.......I will look into it further!
