I don't see anywhere in the Constitution where it says setting rules for conducting elections has to be done the same way laws are made. Unlike laws, there is no requirement for Governors to sign (or to have vetoed) legislation directing election rules. As a result, GOP legislatures seeking election reform are stuck in dead-end negotiations with Commie Democrat governors. The legislatures need to ignore the Governors and ready their cases for the US Supreme Court and then we have to hope those deadbeats on the Supreme Court rule correctly (i.e., in accordance with what the Constitution says about setting rules for federal elections).
This misunderstanding is holding up election reform in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. To have elections working right by November 2022, the legislatures need to get on the ball immediately. Time timeline already is running short. For one thing, they need to get cases into the federal courts ahead of the election and then be ready to go back to the courts immediately after the elections, while the legislatures change their schedules, so they will be in session after the election to avoid being out of action in November-December 2020.

As a practical matter, everything we do to run our country relies on straightening out the election process. From what I can see, progress on fixing the election process is not moving quickly enough. People are aroused to the issue, but generally not qualified to do the necessary. Even the legislatures, which hold all the power for directing elections, do not understand their powers and also do not understand enough about how elections work to define what is needed. In Georgia for example, big victory was declared this week in response to the Georgia Senate passing bills with many provisions for election reform. The problem is when some citizen election integrity people saw the bills, their assessment is these reforms will not solve the problems they have in Georgia elections. They said the provisions address voter fraud but the problem is election fraud.
Why are election reform bills getting passed without the right input from people who know what is needed to fix it? One problem is, I am told, the legislators are not really into election reform. They are hearing from their constituents, so they are going through motions, but their real interest always is maintaining cash flow from lobbyists who fund them, or bribe them.
Even though the Democrats are dumb, they are smart enough to have long ago recognized they could seize all power by setting the rules, so long as our side is constrained by the rules. We need the legislators to get a lot smarter about setting election rules.
The main rule the legislators have wrong is they think they need to pass election rules the same way they pass laws. GOP legislators need to not bend to anti-american governors who are not even wanting fair elections. We the people need to engage and lead election reform.
