Running the elections is usually an executive function (VA might be different, idk), so implementing only has logistical considerations. Shouldn't be that hard, just flag their voter ID instead of striking it, and separate the votes into a separate basket, to be left uncounted unless and until ordered to by a court. And when that happens, the circumstances and the totals will all be known.
Of course if the votes only show up electronically and not on paper, that's a separate issue.
But if the courts have common sense, you're right: the compelling state interest should rule the day. Let's see what happens.
