Of course! I can't speak for Mythic Raids, but for Normal and Heroic, 95%+ of all groups are overgeared, cause people want easy clears (whether this is good is another discussion). With twice as many leather speccs as mail speccs, there are on avarage twice as many leather players than mail players, which means that there are twice as many people who MIGHT be overgeared and not need their loot. Also we get more drops of leather.

If we are 18man in the raid, 12 leather users and 6 mail users and lets say the boss drop 3 items (prolly more tho), then the odds are that 2 of those loots goes to players that are leather and 1 to the mail. So EVERY boss, you can ask 2 leather users if they need the gear, but only 1 mail user. So, you have a higher chance to get leather stuff.

YES, there are also more people who ALSO NEED leather stuff, but in like every group, 90% of the loot is NOT needed, so there is always more loot that gets traded than who is kept, so the more leather users, the higher chance for gear.
