It has certainly been a very long interim period. Looking at the timeline your previous Bishop effectively left four years ago and it will be five by the time the next one is in post. The reports at the time certainly indicate something unusual, perhaps more akin to a push than to a jump.

After a lengthy interim period and with the services of bishop  borrowed
from an adjacent diocese, the Episcopal Diocese of Bethlehem USA is  finally
getting down to the nitty-gritty electing a new bishop.  The most  recent
+Bethlehem, whom I really liked, left under a cloud (I'm softening that a  
bit),
and thus the long interim for healing.
 
>From the official bishop election site, it looks as though the last  
+Bethlehem's
fondness for the Procathedral in Wilkes-Barre (he was consecrated  there)
is resulting in a backlash return to the Cathedral of the Holy Nativity  in
Bethlehem, PA.
 
The candidates for +Bethlehem may now come out of the woodwork!
