“The legal remedy is the writ of quo warranto.”

That’s not a constitutional remedy, so it won’t work.

The constitution doesn't provide for a lot things, like popular election of the president. The constitution puts few limits on the power of Congress to pass a law like the quo warranto statute, and fewer on the judiciary to interpret it. In a common law system such as ours, the constitution is pretty much what the courts say it is, unless people want to take up arms to decide an issue. (Succession was such a case.) If push comes to shove, an army of phantom voters can't fight.

Certainly not in the manner they seem to think it will.
