I agree. I understand.

Just telling you what I’ve seen in the statute law supporting the Constitution. Nowhere, no how do you see any punishment for a state refusing to hand over an elector slate. It’s unclear what would happen,except that while the Senate and Archivist can demand the slate, they can’t do anything. But a state court can and can order the arrest of people who do not submit on the grounds of contempt.

Violations of civil rights, sedition, insurrection, etc., do not need specific laws to prosecute. Failing to meet the requirements of federal elections can be prosecuted.
