Mississippi Senate candidate Chris McDaniel is stepping up his efforts to overturn his narrow defeat against incumbent Sen. Thad Cochran in last week's Republican primary runoff. His latest move: Offering a $1,000 reward to people who can provide evidence of voter fraud in the election — but first, he's asking his supporters to send in $15 donations to help fund the project.

"To fight the alleged corruption, we need your help," says the McDaniel campaign's official announcement page. "Just $15 will help us begin to eradicate corruption in Mississippi. $15 represents the first steps in helping Chris clean up this mess."
