No, the control and monitoring of elections lies within the powers of the state, not the federal government. However, it does hold the power to either supplement current state legislation or to impose penalties of its own, independent of the state.

Granting Congress any power not explicitly granted by the Constitution will remove all limits on its power other than what Congress itself believes to be the good of the nation?

As long as elections continue to be held and voters still have choices about who represents them in Congress, that is the limit on the power of Congress, since if members of Congress act in ways that are offensive to the voters, they will then be voted out of office and replaced by people whose actions will better reflect the will of the voters. Congressional power only becomes unlimited if elections are suspended and terms of office are extended indefinitely (which so far no one has attempted to do).
