Modding republic election frequency

[Kinabalu]

A question to all the CK2 modders out there:
Is it possible to mod the election mechanic of republics to occur more frequently, not just when the title holder dies?
My idea would be to have an election every 1-5 years, based on the same factors as the current one (prestige, money, age etc.).

I have no idea if this is realistic/do-able, would love to hear some feedback

Could you? Possibly. Would it be stable? Probably not. I'm not sure how to get the weights for which patrician has how much votes, but it could probably be calculated easily enough. The problem is that the game mostly expects titles to pass around at death or abdication.

There's actually an effect for it: hold_election. Should make it possible to hold event driven elections in merchant republics.
