The ruling is right, obviously, and does represent vindication of some sort.
But it doesn't fucking mean anything unless there's action behind it. If what the SoS did was illegal, charge him/her. Make the arrest(s). Try the case and put the asshole(s) in prison.
There must be political consequences too. The state's actions led directly to an invalid and illegal election, so those election results should be decertified. The people elected must lose their offices, at least until a re-do election can be held.
It's not enough to simply say "this was wrong, this was illegal" unless you're going to follow through and apply consequences to the crime. At this point the ruling is just another strongly-worded letter, and honestly, fuck that shit.
