Thats your Governor and your legislature. It should be our aim to treat the Regions as responsbile governoring bodies and if one more is not then that should be changed as soon as possible.
Here is the issue, and this is going to be my final word on the issue until this arises again:
The Secretary of Federal Elections is a position whose job it is to manage elections. If he fails in that capacity, he is forced to resign, or he is impeached.
The Governor is elected to lead the region. If he fails to open the booth, he
may face no consequences. Indeed, if a Governor is perfect in almost every respect, but fails to open amendment booths, I still might vote for him. Why? Because his job is to govern, of which only a small part is running federal amendment elections. As a regional voter, my job isn't to find the Governor who will best run federal amendment booths. My job is to find the best Governor for my region, and he may be the worst Governor at federal amendment booths, but I don't care, as long as he can save the region.
As such, and this is supremely important, there will be variance in the ability of the governors to perform this task. This is simple statistics and sociology; if you are selecting someone on some basis, then their performance in another basis will behave like the population as a whole, not like an expert in his field. And we want experts in the election-running field running elections, because we can inherently create a sample of people who have been vetted for their abilities to run elections.
