It �s a sad definition from me. So here it goes, INELUCTABLE is an adjective to describe some candidates who you think won �t bring any luck to your country/city/people (depends on the type of elections) and that �s why you don �t elect them, because they all seem ineluctable to you.

Wow, i �ve been thinking of the word for over3 minutes and noted that this will be a good mothod to help my ss learn new voca !!!
