    I think you've nailed the problem on the head. If the election goes forward where some states allow one candidate and others allow the other, then whoever wins will lack legitimacy in the eyes of the public. Whichever side loses will immediately claim that the election was unfair and that the results should be overturned. This gets US a step closer to the civil war scenario.
