I think the problem in the US is that you give too much freedom to the states to do whatever the eff they want about a crucial basic right such as voting which is guaranteed by the US constitution. Is there any other major democracy where these laws aren't consistent across the country? The result is needless controversy that becomes difficult to resolve.
You can see this factor being a major pain in the butt in every hot-button issue including abortion, gay-rights, etc. Even the civil rights issues (segregation) only got resolved when the federal government put its foot down and showed everyone who's boss.
