That's nice. Quite cogent and salient insights. Now, Let's stay on task and topic here.

There is only ONE mention of Elections in the U.S. Constitution, yet Madison's notes provide insight into his thinking on making it the State Legislators thereof to decide in session by Law; the Times, Places, & Manners of holding elections, and that pretty much could be summed up that these local representatives are the closest to the local people.
Anything short of that or devoid of this responsibility willy nilly, is not adhering to the Constitution, which is what all these people swore an oath to uphold. It is not legal nor fair that many states kept their voting Laws as prescribed; and others hastily changed them by means other than prescribed within Article 1 Sect 4 in their State Legislative session.
Substituting Governors, state Judicial Branches, and election committees or whatnot runs roughshod on the Rules prescribed in the Playbook
To paraphrase Honest Abe's quote: "A house divided cannot stand", This house of a Nation is no longer a constitutional representative Republic, if a few member states can go Rogue, and All cannot adhere to agree to go by the Playbook, with there being no consequences for non-compliance.
