I think that State Governments should have the right to screw up their State and Local Elections all they like, but I think that Federal Elections should be run by the Federal Government. The IT voting platform for Federal Elections should be uniform. The Voting machines should be uniform. The ballots should be uniform. The maintenance of the Federal Voter Rolls should be handled by the Secret Service or Treasury. In short, Federal Elections should be the responsibility of and monitored by the Federal Government. If you walk into a poll in Idaho, California, Mississippi, New York, Florida, etc, the experience for the voter should be identical, and their right to vote, and ease of voting uniformly ensured.
Again, this has nothing to do with "States Rights", let the States do what they will with their own elections, but the Federal Government should have complete, unimpeded domain over Federal Elections.
Then the games stop.
