Just who would lodge the complaint? You really have to recall and redo the whole outcome. And once you let the Pandora's box open, they will sue backwards in time.
We saw this after the last election and I guarantee we will see it after the next one...
And I understand why citizens are hostile. It's the one time they expect to have their voice heard. When they speak, and it gets suppressed, the very function of the Democratic process is now gone.
It does seem to be doesn't it.....
It goes back quite a few years. When Bush beat Gore we got introduced to "Not my President". And the faucet slowly gets opened a little more each year.
As far as Bush v Gore goes you could not be more wrong. I personally sat two seats away from Theresa Lepore the Palm Beach county supervisor of elections. We counted the ballots not once, not twice but THREE TIMES. I spent over a week sequestered away from my family as a volunteer. EVERY time the same result occurred, Bush won. We found not enough votes or as it was ‘hanging chads’ for Gore to change the outcome. Every ballot was scrutinized by no less than four people, LePore, me (or the person counting)a democrat and a republican.
Sorry but that’s wrong again. The entire state of Florida then and now was and is solid red except three counties, Palm Beach, Broward and Dade. Had we recounted the entire state the results would have been the same, he lost. They were searching for a miracle here and after three recounts results were the same, he lost. It was a while ago. Unfortunately since I was holed up for a week counting hanging chads I remember it clearly.

Between mail in voting weeks ahead of an election, between votes cast in large numbers that need days to be delivered to a ballot counting office ( Nevada ) through the postal system how could anything be tampered with?
The answer is to go back to the old school way and have people present themselves in person for voting with their ID which is verified true. One person, one vote, there's no room for shenanigans this way.
What about military stationed away from their home state, students in college, people with disabilities that can easily go out and vote? Even for people who can go out and vote have a hard time with getting to the polls with their job schedule.
Some sort of allowance will have to be made for these people, military are easy as there are already mechanisms in place to allow for this. Election stations could be open longer and be able to provide out of state abilities for students and the like.
That's the purpose of the mail in ballots. It provides an alternative to the people who can't make it to the polls.
Republicans used to do most of the early voting, but that changed with COVID. Democrats were being safe and started mailing in ballots. Early voting has been going on for years with no problems and no complaints from the right.
That's pretty much where it stands now, it will be a real hard fix to repair the election issues the US is facing...
