Affidavits of what? More people swearing they voted for him than the number of votes he got in the official election numbers?

My guess is that he has people attesting to inappropriate practices, such as not exchanging the voting books with the Democrats to stop inappropriate crossover voting (by those who had voted Democrat in the same primary on the original day) and persons who were encouraged (paid) to vote.

If you have enough of these over enough precincts, the argument may have a chance when it gets to court.

No, it's people swearing that they voted in the Republican primary but will never support a Republican candidate in the general election. By Mississippi law a voter can vote in the primary of one party only, and must intend to support the party nominations if they vote in the primary election. It looks like McDaniel is trying to get those votes thrown out.

*************************
From what I’ve previously read, MS State laws don’t allow a vote for one party in a primary to cross-over and vote for the other party in the general election. ....These people said they voted for a (weak) GOP candidate in the primary and that they would vote Dem in the general.
