12. As noted in the full article linked in the OP...
...the most pertinent statutes are WI's 9.01 Recount section. I go through them in the article, detailing how evidence of irregularities (versus a demonstration of "fraud") are the main key to overturning an election under this section of WI law.

As the statutes note: "Generally, to successfully challenge an election, the challenger must show the probability of an altered outcome in the absence of the challenged irregularity."

Are there enough "irregular" ballots to meet that bar? I'd be very surprised at this point, if there was not. But the Kloppenburg camp now has about 5 days to plow through ALL of the minutes from all 72 counties in hopes of making that determination.

See the article linked in the OP for much more.

(And thanks to Eowyn for the info from those other statutes as well!)
