I skimmed the source and didn't see anything regarding leader election. Am I missing something or is this implementation encapsulating some of the underlying terminology/analogies traditionally used by Raft?

Wouldn't that be done by the underlying Raft implementation (goraft)?

Yes, that's right. 'go-raft' is imported by rqlite, and uses that package for consensus and leader election.
