> I assume that {{shouldWithholdVotes()}} is used to handle request vote 
> request with higher candidate term from disruptive server, but currently it 
> just ignored such requests, since it only take effect when 
> {{(state.getCurrentTerm() >= candidateTerm)}} .
> shouldWithholdVotes() should be triggered for handling higher term. If 
> currentTerm is larger or equal to candidateTerm, just reject the request 
> vote, no need further handling.
>  
> Current code is 
> {code:java}
> private boolean shouldWithholdVotes(long candidateTerm) {
>   if (state.getCurrentTerm() < candidateTerm) {
>     return false; 
>   } else if (isLeader()) {
>     return true; 
>   } else {
>     // following a leader and not yet timeout
>     return isFollower() && state.hasLeader()
>         && 
> role.getFollowerState().map(FollowerState::shouldWithholdVotes).orElse(false);
>   }
> }
> {code}
> Modify to 
> {code:java}
> private boolean shouldWithholdVotes(long candidateTerm) {
>   if (state.getCurrentTerm() >= candidateTerm) {
>     return false; 
>   } else if (isLeader()) {
>     return true; 
>   } else {
>     // following a leader and not yet timeout
>     return isFollower() && state.hasLeader()
>         && 
> role.getFollowerState().map(FollowerState::shouldWithholdVotes).orElse(false);
>   }
> }
> {code}
