In that moment an allegedly dependent entity asserts its own independent agency. The onus then falls upon the power from which that entity removed itself to either recognize that claim or make the attempt to regain control over the newly independent entity.
Also, speaking more directly toward the topic: many historians consider the election of 1800 to be of particular note for the fact that one party (Democratic-Republicans) almost completely usurped the power of its polar opposite (Federalists) without any bloodshed at all.
