AFAIK, the aggrieved party would be the losing candidate. That candidate is typically a D who announces defeat hours after the vote. They don’t fight these court battles long term in an interest of public unity. Or, worse, don’t have the finances for the court battle. See the vote election lawsuits following the ‘16 vote in the states which flipped that election. That was the 3rd party candidate Jill Stein suing and running out of money.
