Does Mississippi law even provide for a re-vote?

Certainly, enough evidence could be brought that there was fraud at a level sufficient to influence the result.

But I can't see an election being reversed on statistical testimony -- which must necessarily be premised on something like "the 95% level of confidence".

Statistical evidence, though, might be sufficient to authorize a re-vote as a remedy -- if Mississippi law provides for such.

It all depends on the judge they take it to.

Doesn't matter if it doesn't. Courts are free to fashion any remedy they feel like dishing out.

Neither can I, but at some point, the math works with a precision that is at least as good as the precision of counting the ballots in the first place.
