I am not an authority, obviously, but I don't think that is completely true. I think Congress has the ultimate authority and the ability to regulate.Because the Constitution says the power of elections is decided at the state level, not federal level. I would support federal election guidelines, but I doubt either party would be able to get something like that passed.
That said, I am tired of this doubt that either party, blah, blah, blah! I think the American people or at least the majority actually would like to see the same thing here. The people should demand such a standard!
