In this case, some rando judge in a rando state has zero jurisdiction over a federal election.

In this case, allowing for your sweeping generalization, the SCOTUS agreed with you.

And it's not just the Confederates. I've been hearing that chant from the right pretty much my entire adult life. When I was a Republican, I agreed with it. As I learned more, and learned how it was (and sometimes still is) abused, I became less in favor of it.

Slavery was a good example of the Confederacy, but more recently there were Jim Crow laws, laws against gay marriage, and now we are seeing the curtailing of women's rights by some states. How does it make sense that a frozen embryo is a child in one state, and just a block of ice in another? It's stupid. It either is, or it isn't. Shouldn't matter what state you're in. Just as a current example.
