You seriously can ignore that UK beat his closest rival by more than 700k votes. However, if RAO choses to go to court, its his right. We shudnt demonise him. If anything, it will give us an option to test our judicial and electoral reforms this far which is a good thing for our democracy. We must appreciate the fact that upto this point, nobody is asking for mass action, we r pointing towards the courts. Let them weigh their options... True that. But not going to court will also begin to entrench a culture of losing honorably. This is a close to 800,000 vote difference we're talking about, you know. But let Jubilee also celebrate honorably and with grace and humility. He will be arguing a case for a runoff and not an outright win. If toothcomb failed to force a runoff, the courts would do.

i would not go down this route,what will it prove ? sometimes you need wisdom ... just let it be and move on even if they retallied and UK got 49.7% do want to drag the people though a rerun when the mood on he ground is already against it?
