I'm sorry, I knew it wasn't PM, I should have written MP in my post above about St Maarten's government ineptness and failings. My error. I based my comment on reading elsewhere after the 2/26/18 election that he was re-elected as an Member of Parliament. There really hasn't been much written about the election results, but here's what I see in an attempt to confirm:

The National Alliance party won about 30% of the vote, giving them 5 MP positions:

William Marlin was third in his parties votes at 11%:

As I understand, the National Alliance Party won 5 positions on the parliament in this election, and Marlin was third in the National Alliance voting results, so I'm thinking he's one of the 15 MP's. At least he thinks he is:

As a side note, regarding general voting apathy in elections there and looking at these actual results - voter participation in February wasn't as bad as I'd thought. The population of St Maarten is just over 40,000, and according to the published results above, there were about 22,500 eligible voters in Feb. Almost 15,000 actually voted, or roughly 62%, far higher participation than I had thought. In perspective, that compares to 55% in 2016's apathetic U.S. election but more in line with 64% in 2008's.
