Constitutional Requirements for State Election Integrity
Under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, states have a crucial responsibility to ensure that all eligible citizens can vote while preventing invalid votes from being cast. This dual obligation means states must both avoid disenfranchising qualified voters and prevent corruption that leads to vote dilution. Ensuring this balance is key to maintaining trust in the electoral process and upholding democratic values.
United Sovereign Americans’ Legal Actions
The United Sovereign Americans organization has filed lawsuits in nine states, covering 173 electoral votes, arguing that these states failed to meet constitutional and federal requirements. They allege that 29 million voter registration records are invalid, and 10 million of these invalid registrants were allowed to vote in the 2022 elections. This, they claim, undermines the principle of equal representation and dilutes the power of legitimate votes.

Challenges and Legal Strategies
The group argues that despite raising these issues, states have not rectified the problems. They seek to compel states to adhere to election laws through mandamus orders, which require officials to perform their duties under the law. These orders aim to ensure that elections meet established standards before they are certified. The legal strategy involves proving that states failed to comply with Congressional mandates, which include maintaining rigorous error rates in vote counting.
Consequences of Non-Compliance
If states ignore court orders, they could face financial penalties or, in severe cases, jail time for officials who refuse to comply. Historically, federal judges have intervened to enforce compliance with Congressional mandates, including desegregation orders. The current goal is to establish monitoring procedures and provisional ballots to ensure proper vote counting and prevent certification of flawed results.
