> Presently there is no state validation for the start() api, so one can invoke 
> multiple times consecutively. The second or further invocation will makes the 
> client node to become 'READY' state transition. Because there is an offer 
> already got created during the first invocation of the start() api, the 
> second invocation again makeOffer() and after determination will be chosen as 
> READY state transitions. 
> This makes the situation with no 'ELECTED' nodes present and the client (or 
> the user of the election recipe) will be indefinitely waiting for the 
> 'ELECTED' node.
> Similarly, stop() api can be invoked and there is no state validation and 
> this can dispatch unnecessary FAILED transition events.
> IMO, LES recipe can have validation logic to avoid the successive start() and 
> stop() invocations.
