A law needs to be enacted that says if the percentage win is not one full percentage point then the election goes to a mandatory run-off. Statistical ties should not count, leaving elections open to this kind of wrangling and delay. Elections are not something that should be for the courts to decide.
That’s what’s so rotten about the Minnesota situation to begin with.
The recount was trigged automatically because the count was so close. It SHOULD have triggered a runoff.
