Just to answer this question, here is from the rules listed in post 1. In the case of a vacated position (due to death or other reasons) just a simple majority vote elects someone to the position.

In the case of an election to replace a vacated sheriff position due to death, simple majority vote will be the new sheriff. In all cases, tie-election votes result in no change of the sheriff (even in the case of a vacated job).

More than 50% of the people only applies in voting someone in as sheriff while you currently have a sheriff.
