re: McDaniel has 4,900 illegal votes and expect 6,700 by tonight

Yes that's true but he has to show that enough voters really did that (and probably show who they voted for which will be almost impossible except for absentee ballots). My prediction is he won't win a court battle.

It would be easy to prove if it happened. Just have to do all the grunt work.

There's a record of who voted in the D primary. If he can find a sufficient number of those same voters who then voted in the R runoff, those votes are illegal. Doesn't matter if you can't prove they voted for Cochran--if enough ineligible voters participated in the R runoff, the result is invalid.

Of course, one of Haley's cronies will probably rule otherwise regardless of the evidence, but based on the facts and the law McDaniel would be entitled to a do-over if he finds enough ineligible voters.
