The kingship couldn't pass beyond Turgon, due to the fact that Tuor wasn't a Elf, he was a man, and Earendil was half Elven. I think that only fully Elven peoples could claim kingship of the Noldor. Thus Elrond not being king.
Tuor and Earendil both ruled over the Noldorin exiles of Gondolin. Turin essentially rulled in Nargothrond when Orodreth became ineffectual, and before there was a Gil-galad to rule in the west of the world it was Elrond who had that place. Of course Dior also inherited Doriath. I don't think being 'fully Elven' has anything to do with it.
