Ya know, I've honestly no idea how any of that works. :-)

They simply asked me to stand for election and I agreed.  I've been
fairly critical of some of their expanded NT coverage (I think NT
coverage is just fine, but I'll go to Windows World or something if
that's what I want to see and not USENIX) and it would have been
churlish of me to criticise their decisions without being willing to
get involved in the decision-making process myself.

He doesn't just seem to be, he IS.  In fact, I think he's one of the
original Unix hacker prototypes. :-)

John's a good guy - we'd also be in good hands with him, but I've no
idea how many spaces on the ballot there are.  I haven't received my
ballot yet - perhaps we're not allowed to vote for ourselves. ;)
