Replaces exponential backoff for candidate state after losing election with waiting rest of election timeout. We don't need an exponential backoff after PreVote was implemented since candidates transition to prospective after losing an election. Replicas also enter Prospective state and Candidate state with a random election backoff which is sufficient to prevent livelocked elections. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
