Yes, r1583 does grant that right.

A.1. Duties may come to Require Attention as laid down in the rules.
When a Duty Requires Attention, any player who is not otherwise barred
from performing that Duty may perform it. A Player who performs a Duty
shall receive the reward specified for that Duty, which shall be refered
to as a Perk. The Duty shall then cease to Require Attention.

C.2. The Election Duty
The Election Duty shall Require Attention whenever a Ministry has been
Free for at least five ndays in any one nweek. It shall be the
responsibility of the Player carrying out the Duty to call an Election
for all Free Ministries. The Perk for performing the Election Duty shall
be 20 points.

>From C2, performing the duty consists of calling an Election.
The Duty Requires Attention.
So from A1, any player may perform it.

You mean the X? Well, I'd think that if a rule is organized "into
subsections", every sentence of the rule would be part of some
subsection, so the Ministries rule isn't the only one violating r497.

Platonically, the X isn't there at all. It's just a typo for 'B'.
