Chicago (where else?):
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-cook-county-judge-mentally-unfit-memory-loss-20161202-story.html
A judge has a court clerk put on the robes and hear cases. Judge gets removed from the bench but continues to earn $190,000 per year salary. Clerk has law license revoked, runs for judge, wins election, but is not allowed to take the seat ... which will remain vacant. It's like something out of Alice in Wonderland.

Cook County can be pretty third world at times.

Yep. It's Chicago...
However, since the ILSC ruled that should could not take the judgeship BEFORE the election, then the write-in candidate should be declared the winner and fill the seat.
Just my $.02

I agree.
