Has anyone seen analysis of elections nullified by vote?

For example, voters would be allowed to put the status of any and all candidates as null and/or a top vote as null. If the majority of votes cast as were null, another election would be run with all candidates from the prior election removed.

In the mean time between the next election (with all the time it would take to find/vet brand new candidates!), would the incumbent keep his/her spot?

That would be the most obvious resolution in the case that another election was required, though might be exploited as a means to get around term limits.

Another option might be the delegation of responsibility to the voting population to force a timely resolution of the election, greater understanding of the issues at hand, etc.
