I'm not sure that having a current official act as an election commissioner could compromise the process; there is no greater opportunity for corruption or manipulation with them, not greater incentive. As the EC consists of a justice, an admin and a CRS member we in effect have a limited pool of possible commissioners - establishing further limits seems counterproductive.

I need more than 2 hands to count the number of times people called into question the integrity of elections because sitting office holders (myself and others) were running them. This history was not that long ago.
