It isn't just the 4th - their own authority to oversee elections granted to Congress - Article 1 section 4[1] - and I presume elsewhere as well - there is an attorney from Burlington who makes the argument that the Supreme Court overstepped it's authority with Citizens United.

It is curious that Congress itself has not made that argument and simply told the court to step off.
