题目分析：
本题看似较长，实则不难，只需把主干提炼清晰，答案较容易选对。
选项分析：
A选项：本选项主从句颠倒。应将cite句作为从句，estimate句作为主句。依据图形背景原则，从句必然是持续时间更长的，更大的事件，主句必然是持续时间更短的，更小的事件。在本题中，“声称投票有误等”必然是背景事件，“预估没被计算的票数”是凸显的事件，这是因为，声称投票有误等是原因，预估票数少是结论，原因的发生和作用时间显然要比结果更长（原因至少先发生）。
B选项：Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
C选项：句首的citing faulty voting equipment, confusing ballots, voter error, and problems at polling places是伴随状语，其字面主语为主句主语 4 million to 6 million of the 100 million votes cast，这是不正确的。发出cite这个动作的应该是study。
D选项：主从句错误同选项(A)。另外， had not been counted是过去完成时，表示过去的过去，但在本题中没有一个明确的过去时间作为参照，不应表达过去的过去。
E选项：时态错误同选项(D)。
E有一个容易忽略的问题，但很严重。 例：(RON) my friend from florida came to the bar --> he's originally from florida my friend came to the bar from florida --> 3000 miles is a long, long way to go for some beers. 名词后有介词成分修饰时，是不可以把谓语动词放在名词和介词中间的，否则介词就会修饰这个动词，从而改变语义。题中of 100是不可以修饰动词的，也就是在E选项这样排列后语义是完全不通的，连改变语义都说不上。
