I have thought for awhile that each state being in complete control of federal voting could be a conflict of interest, unless everyone was honest and law-abiding.
I don’t know much about your laws, but it seems to me that dem controlled states could certainly do a number on a presidential candidate. I don’t know what the answer is, other than separate ballots for president? Of course it could work in reverse.....feds in charge of presidential election and controlling some red states.
Oh what a dangled web we weave.....
What’s left is the Athens, TN approach to corruption, if the courts are going to refuse to correct the issues.
