>From a UI point of view, I'd argue for a command-line option rather than
an extra argument, because if we need one of these kinds of optional
tweaks we'll probably need more at some point, and half a dozen optional
arguments are unmanageable without names.

>From a docs point of view, this needs documentation in the --help text,
in the manpage, and probably a NEWS item too.  I'd recommend that the
documentation explain what the election timer is, what the default is,
what range of values admins should consider, and how they can make a
reasonable choice.  (That could be just a sentence or two.)
