So, it seems to me that — unless the court sides with R2D2 in the impending lawsuit — there will be no elected Class I senator for Lincoln on November 3. In that event, the Constitution states that the governor must call a special election, and may in the meantime appoint a temporary replacement; so in that sense, the constitutional response to a tied election (if the tie is upheld) would indeed be to hold a second vote.
