Love our upside down Pedes. It does and it makes a huge mess at the federal, state, and local level since a voter gets a single ballot to vote for everything from the President on down to local bond issues for funding schools and cities. So, if you throw out a ballot, you invalidate all of those choices.
The biggest problem is where the selection for President was the only vote switched on an otherwise legal ballot. We can't simply invalidate the ballot for two reasons: 1) we want to keep their votes for other Republicans, 2) they - meaning the voter - has a right to have their voice heard at the ballot box. This is the central tenant of any republican form of government.
To invalidate a ballot is to disenfrancise a voter; to disenfranchise a voter is to enforce taxation without representation. Our war is not civil, it is revolutionary - against a distant and disinterested government, the anti-American Left.
