Nixon lost in 1960 due to “irregularities in Illinois and LBJ’s Texas. He declined to challenge in order to avoid rancor and for the “good of the country.” A Democrat would surely do the same, no?
Senator Mary Landrieu won a disputed election in 1996 over Woody Jenkins, a long-time member of the LA House of Representatives.
Jenkins claimed, with good reason, that massive voter FRaud had been committed, and he showed me proof that in excess of 7000 FRaudulent votes had been cast.
“After losing this election, Jenkins contested the results.[11] He claimed that at least 7,454 “phantom votes” were cast in 4,000 precincts in the state in 1996. The so-called phantom votes were alleged to have occurred when more votes were cast on the voting machines than voters who signed up to vote in that precinct on election day. Jenkins also claimed that more than thirty thousand signatures of voters on election day did not match their signatures on voter registration cards. Claims were also made that individuals were hauled multiple times to various precincts in New Orleans to cast votes without being required to sign the register. The Jenkins forces alleged that buses drove through the inner city and offered payments to anyone who would vote. Moreover, they claimed that further investigations proved that about 1,300 votes were cast by voters whose registered addresses were abandoned public housing units.”

“In October 1997, after a ten-month investigation, the [Republican Senate Rules] committee allowed Landrieu’s victory to stand. It concluded that while there were numerous irregularities, it was impossible to determine if they were egregious enough to change the outcome.”
There is a great discussion of Woody Jenkins career and this election at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woody_Jenkins, where these two quotes are snipped FRom.
In other words, the Republicans allowed Mary Landrieu and the Democrats to steal another election!
As you noted, there have been others!
