It is well established that state laws are interpreted by the highest state judicial authority, the state supreme court, which allowed the count to go forward. The US Supreme Court knows this. By interfering, the US Supreme Court bypassed the US Constitution.

Not exactly. It is equally well established that state laws as written and applied must pass U.S. Constitutional muster. The U.S. Supreme Court, which is the final arbiter of the U.S. Constitution, said 7-2 that the regimen approved by the FL Supreme Court didn't. That's why they call the U.S. Supreme Court the "Supremes."

Otherwise, states could infringe on your federal civil rights at will, re-establish slavery, take women's right to an abortion away, etc. You wouldn't want that, now, would you?
