1. Quick answers
1. There is no FEDERAL right to vote for electors. The states are left to determine the process. The process can't violate the Constitution however. Basically what this means is the states determine eligibility of voters and the method of choosing them.

2. There is probably a smidgen of truth in that allegation, but not much. Most of the problems took place in Dem-controlled counties, but funding and such comes from the state.
