As @Nate_Cohn said, there is no legislation that will promote voter confidence when losers like Trump are willing to spread lies and conspiracy theories.

The irony is that the polls were correct mostly for the presidential race. And off the most in Senate and House results. The GOP did better than predicted down ballot but they were the ones shouting fraud!
Dear God, imagine the reverse: Polls predicting GOP gains down ballot but instead Dems picked up seats.
Trump and the GOP are the bad actors. It’s not like Dems in IA and ME refused to accept their Senate losses and sued and fought and made baseless claims of fraud.
Trump sued and contested states where he was consistently down in polls. He insisted he won in a landslide despite no evidence to support this.
Some polls at least did show Biden winning FL and NC. That wasn’t contested and no Democrat objected to the results in Congress.
Lot of the Kraken conspiracy was rooted in supposed “unlikely performance by Biden.” Yet GOP crowed that Trump did well with Latinos in Florida. That was just how it is.
Anyway you can’t resolve this issue if one party is wholly corrupt. There was no reason for a GA House rep to challenge Michigan’s electors. No Dem from NY was challenging NC or FL with equally baseless claims.
