This format makes it easier for election officials since we would only need to generate the electorate once for both elections. We can create whatever polls we need to for PTL elections at the same time we make the TC election poll. All in all less confusing for the electorate as well (hopefully).
We historically placed TC elections after PTL elections because some people found it useful to know if they were elected PTL before running (or not running) for a TC seat.
Is that still a concern? If not, I think it's just easier to do both at the same time (nominations, campaigning, election).

I personally don't see this being an issue and think it could be beneficial from a community focus point of view. I wonder if that would cause some challenges for the election officials though. I would guess that the election tooling is currently only able to handle one type of election at a time. Sean
