No two validators should be permitted to use the same pubkey

After declaring a candidate, the validator node runs well with expected voting power. I then declared another candidate on the same node. Here are the results.

Validator node address: 217763B77127EBA9C94F76F4BBD7457C059B5B69
First candidate address: B6834D914FE50F0C743E6A012AB20438CFADFB95
Second candidate address: 99FFAEE5BF6040EADA2F26548C4A702619797C9F

1. The candidate being declared successfully.
2. I can query that 2nd candidate with correct assets.
3. The voting power of the validator node is still the same as what has been bonded by the 1st candidate.
4. Amount of coins from the 2nd candidate account has been deducted.

Don't know where the voting power has gone.

@kwunyeung What do you mean by on the same node? On the same server? or from the same wallet address? Or using the same PubKey?

Sounds like a bug, thanks for the submit!

On the same server using the same pubkey.

Cool - this is a bug as no two candidates are permitted to use the same pubkey - the fact that the transaction went through is the bug here
