For the record, I was wrong. Excerpt from 1926 where it's used in a different manner entirely:

"... the voting in other Republican states should hinge pretty largely on the issue whether Mr. Coolidge shall be permitted to become a lame duck president for the final two years of his term."

Note the conditional.

It turns out lame duck is just a dumb term that no one can really agree on an actual definition for. It's not even exclusively a timing thing because people will argue that being effective makes you not a lame duck.
