Interesting idea, I like it.

But I think it means more denying citizens right to vote rather than denying a choice of whom they may vote for, but I understand your argument.

I think we are in a lawless time, as most recent decision shows.

I'd like you to elaborate on that point.

Are you saying that this section is only about keeping people from the polls?

Do you read it, as I do, to also mean keeping people from running ("choice" of Electors, Congressmen, Judges, etc.)?

Weren't they also afraid of freed slaves running for office? Weren't they concerned that law enforcement, judges, and businesses would try to keep former slaves off of future ballots?
