Chris McDaniel, the opponent in the Mississippi primary and runoff against Sen. Thad Cochran, R-Miss., has filed a case against Cochran’s declared victory in the runoff.

McDaniel filed the case with the Mississippi Republican Party, and said that if the party does not reserve its position that Cochran run the race, he will file a court suit.
