Article I, Section 5 of the Constitution states: "Each House shall be the Judge of the Elections, Returns and Qualifications of its own Members". As a result, the House or Senate have final authority to decide a contested election, superseding even a state legislature or court.
How is that constitutional? Then why not replace whomever you want in order to gain the majority?
