Down in Mississippi, Chris McDaniel is still fighting his race against Senator Thad Cochran. His lawyer, Mitchell Tyner, said Monday he was confident the campaign would turn up enough fraudulent ballots to swing the results of the election. Cochran won that race by approximately 6,700 votes and Tyner told reporters he “would be surprised if we don’t find 6,700″ bad ballots.
Volunteers on Monday began reviewing all of the ballots cast in Mississippi’s runoff election in an effort, weeks after the the conclusion of the contentious race, to show that McDaniel is the legal victor.
McDaniel has yet to concede the election Tyner told reporters that among the ballots being reviewed are “several thousand” cast by ineligible voters. Mississippi law prohibits anybody who voted in the Democratic primary from crossing over to vote in the Republican runoff.
The McDaniel campaign served notice on the Cochran campaign on Friday that volunteers would be viewing the ballots. If it does challenge the election results, it will first do so with the state Republican committee, which is set to certify the results of the race early Monday evening. 10 days later, the campaign can appeal for judicial review.
“We are surprised at the amount of evidence that continues to come forward that shows us that there has indeed been election fraud in this case,” Tyner said.
Tyner hasn’t always been a Cochran foe: A former Republican gubernatorial candidate — he lost a primary to Haley Barbour — he still features a picture of himself with Cochran on his website.
Pretty bold statement by McDaniel atty...
If GOP does not tell Cochran to step down, the Dems will win in MS senate race. And, it will affect other races around the nation
Time to stop the Barbour corruption machine once and for all!
This is great news!
They will have to go after those people who votes in both the Democratic Primary and Republican Runoff for Voter Fraud and subtract any and all votes of those who voted in the runoff and the Dem Primary from Thad Cockran’s vote total.
That's where the saying "Lucky Lyndon" came from.
And “Landslide” Johnson, as well.
Not many floods in that part of the country....
