There doesn't seem to be any lack of bureaucrat candidates. Going by
previous standards Mackensen would be rejected at the current level of
support. Looking back over previous RfBs, quite a lot of votes are of
the kind "We don't need any more bureaucrats". I don't think finding
candidates is going to be the problem; the opposite problem (excess
frivolous candidates) is the more likely.
