No, the midterms elect senators and congressmen, which are federal officers.

State/county/local are not governed by federal law.

Duh, I meant “primaries”, not midterms... Mind thought one thing, fingers did something else.

That was my line of thinking too and I was wondering if it included the office of the President, since aspects of the election for that office are expressly provided for in the Constitution. I just don’t know to what degree, if any, federal legislation has imposed roadblocks that would preclude each state having a vote for President with their state/county/local ballots.
