No, we only send once per sequence number, see below.

Right now we store the last sent sequence number for an originator in 
orig_ifinfo->last_seqno_forwarded when forwarding. This field also gets checked 
and the OGMv2 gets dropped before forwarding when receive it again.

So yes, we send immediately after we make a new election, but only send an OGM 
once per sequence number.

Cheers,
