Except, you know, you don't. Elections are administered by the states. How states conduct their elections is up to the states themselves with the exception of a handful of federal statutes.
You're right, but you would have to agree that it surely must be within the scope of the Federal Governments powers to assure that there are fair elections when it pertains to the election of a president.
Probably in those statutes you speak of.
If someone wants to assert that its none of the federal governments business on how states elect governors or other state officials, I'm not gonna argue.
