I believe the electoral college is currently law, so if he wins the electoral vote, challenging it is challenging the law and the constitution. That's different than the example you cite...

I also believe all Americans know they can only vote for one President. In any case, 19,000 people in one county would not believe they could vote for two. It makes little sense. Altho they now say 15000 were thrown out in that county for double punching in 1996. I don't know if those were simply thrown out and the voters re-punched one on a new ballot, or if those were actual votes that were invalidated. Its mysterious and not being made clear.

Individual citizens' rights: the ballot was also published ahead of time in the newspaper and citizens could protest then, or in the 4 years since 1996. You enter the voting booth and you have the right to deliberate as long as you want before you vote. You also have the right to ask questions during the process.
