If it's Holyrood's election, put Holyrood in charge
A parliament that doesn't have control of its own elections is not a proper parliament. But that's not the most obvious reason why Holyrood should be given power over electoral law. It should be unthinkable, after what happened last time, for the Scotland Office to remain in charge of future Holyrood elections. It would be like handing Heathrow Terminal 5 back to the BA baggage handlers.
