---------------------------------

             Summary: Candidate does not transition to follower on leader 
election timeout
                 Key: RATIS-909
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RATIS-909
             Project: Ratis
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Lokesh Jain
            Assignee: Lokesh Jain


When leader election times out, candidate should change to follower so that it 
can restart leader election process. New leader election is started when server 
transitions from follower to candidate. If server remains in candidate state, 
new leader election will not be started.

In TestStateMachineShutdownWithGrpc, it was seen that all the servers see 
leader election timeout and remain in CANDIDATE state. Therefore new leader is 
never elected.
