Zaev has had corruption issues up to his gills, and in spite of his best efforts, he cannot seem to keep the trireme of the Macedonian state in ship-shape order.
More of issue now (the reason a snap election was called in the first place) is the shock North Macedonia felt when the European Union twisted a kopis in its back late in October 2019 by breaking its promise to open EU membership talks if Macedonia agreed to make a deal with Greece and change its name.
Zaev et companie will be lucky to squeak through intact, in one piece, and still in power after tomorrow.

What if the Albanian parties could agree on one candidate?

Best opportunity the Albanian minority has to pound a bigger foot-mark on North Macedonia. The Albanian parties will enjoy their play as kingmakers.
Zaev has Kasami on his side. Would Ahmeti, or even Sela and Thaçi, join Mickoski if the price was right? (i.e., an Albanian ethnic Prime Minister?).
I don't see them uniting under one Albanian candidate free of a VMRO or SDSM embrace. They don't have the seats, and worse, they have too many alpha-male personalities (some who hate each other).

An Albanian PM was a sticking point, I think deftly handled by Zaev. A hundred days isn't enough to make a legislative impression, but it will be enough for a personable PM from the second-largest group in the country to make the case to the Macedonian people that he should be given a chance to hold on to the job for a lot longer.
