@Caleb Thank you for thinking of me. I don't think I can justify standing this time. As you may have gathered from the drop in my participation recently, I haven't had a lot of time to spend on this site. (I got a substantial promotion at work, which as usual entails more work.) I hope to spend more time here over the coming months but I wouldn't be a good moderator choice this year.
I see from the election roster that we have some interesting and good candidates standing. Which is nice :-)
One thing that you should probably also review is network-wide participation. If users have other active accounts checking the meta activity on those sites can tell you a lot about a candidate.
