Our legislature did not reach a resolution about this issue during the
regular session, which ended last night at midnight.  So, the governor has
called them back into special session today.
>Thanks a bunch!

No. GEMS cannot be programmed to do this.  This would be a variation on a
Recall Question but with two recalled parts.  GEMS may be able to do this
but the Accu-Vote does not reject on a voted recalled race is the
controlling recall race is not voted, it just does not could the recalled
race.
