How does Keyes have standing? I know he ran against Obama for Senate a few years ago, but how does that give him standing in a Presidential contest?

He was a presidential candidate this year. This would be the requirement setforth in Jones v Bush

“In Jones v Bush, a U.S. District Court in Texas in
2000 refused to order Texas’ presidential electors not
to vote both for Bush for president and Cheney for
v-p. The people who filed the case claimed that
Cheney was a Texan. The Court ruled that the people
who filed the case lacked standing. But the court
when on to express the viewpoint that, in any event,
Cheney had sold his only Texas residence months
earlier and was no longer a Texan, but a Wyoming
resident.”
