filed against the vacating officer, the recall election shall
nevertheless proceed. The vacancy shall be filled as provided by
law, but any person appointed to fill the vacancy shall hold office
only until a successor is selected in accordance with Article 4
(commencing with Section 11360) or Article 5 (commencing with Section
11380), and the successor qualifies for that office.
