I get that. The elections run in each state should still have a standard that satisfies accountability and authenticity. Mail in ballots have no mechanism for proper chain of custody tracking. A couple yokels go to a remote ballot box, scoop out an unknown number of ballots, bring them to an HQ to be counted there. There's nothing to prove the collection and movement from the box to HQ is untainted.
It does have a standard. Currently, each state's elections satisfy that state's standard. Those states know they will lack chain of custody and they don't care. The authorities know it's tainted, and often prefer it that way. It's still not a federal issue - all federal cares about is if they send delegates. The rest is the state's problem and the people of that state can, Constitutionally, choose to condone a corrupted voting system. Several do. The states have to fix it, the people of those states have to fix it; and now they have to do it by some means other than the ballot box.
I get it. It's just frustrating being her in WA state. The election system is broke AF and King Inslee has taken advantage of it to our fullest. To think our broke ass corrupted courts will do anything about is just pissing in the wind. Our issues here have been broken for so long it feels like nothing will be remedied at a state level.
States determine the manner of elections. It's none of SCOTUS' business.
