The option that most accurately assesses how the federal government regulates campaigns and elections is:

B) The federal government regulates campaign donations, television advertisements, and voting rights.

This option encompasses the key areas of campaign finance (including donations), media regulations regarding political advertisements, and the overarching legal frameworks that protect voting rights. While other options touch on aspects of election administration, they do not capture the broader regulatory framework as effectively as option B.
