12. No..."without offering evidence" was a snarky reporter comment....

Put another way, the reporter didn't ask about the evidence.

An editor elsewhere -- with a little-less attitude and agenda -- put it this way:

If the court decides to hear the challenge, it can declare a new winner or throw out the results.

You see how this goes? You file a suit, and if the court judges it substantial enough, they'll "hear" it, including the evidence.
