Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The headline is an example of the conflict caused by states administering elections while federal law protects voting rights.

Explanation:

• Different states have different requirements for the voters to be eligible for voting, but the federal laws unequivocally grant voting rights to everyone above eighteen years of age.
• The conduct and operations of elections are in the hands of the executive, but they do not have the right to modify the rules set for the conduct of elections by the United States Constitution.
• This disparity gives rise to conflict between the state machineries and federal laws.
