    If the Civil War didn’t stop elections, martial law won’t. The states will just hold elections anyway.

      Maybe it won’t stop elections. But it will influence voter turnout in a way that’s unfavorable to blue states.

      You’re right, martial law won’t stop elections, but will they use martial law as an excuse to stop elections? We’ll see.
