Mostly yes, it's trolling.
However, elections with just one candidate almost always indicate that there are problems somewhere.

That's true for a country, but for a project like Debian it most likely just means that the current leader did a good job.

In fact, given that project leader tends to be a thankless task, and that numerous previous project leaders have declined to run after a single term in office, Debian may be lucky that they were able to come up with as many candidates as they did!

I think that's the interesting part of this - was there just one candidate because the other potential DPLs all thought he was doing a good job, or because no-one else wanted to do it. And if it's the latter, is there a risk to Debian of not being able to find anyone prepared to be DPL in future?

Zack's been doing an awesome job, and has won a lot of support for that.
Steve (previous DPL)
