In terms of realpolitik, I guess it depends on the extent, the speed and the affected population.
If it's a lot of people over a long time, they'll be out. If it's a lot of people over a short time, it'll come down to who dies, and how much time until the next election. The young and middle-aged, and generally "the productive" people die: they're out. If it's the old and those close to retirement age, it will be, quite literally, a rejuvenation for the country, lots of wealth will be passed down, the pension and health system will be unburdened, the job market might open up for the young, that could lead to a strong economic improvement for plenty of people.
The personal economic situation is very important, but you'll need some time between the event and the election. If aunt Mary just died last week, you're maybe not going to vote for the guy in office that is responsible for the policies. If aunt Mary died three years ago, your finances have significantly improved, you've inherited a house and your future looks bright, why experiment with a new leadership?
