Actually pretty boring. I made it through 20 of them, and only 1 or 2 actually gave me pause for thought. Most of them only had one candidate's oval marked, so I have no idea why they were challenged. Someone better at photoshopping should paste some of the ballots here.

Is the recount over? This has been going on forever.

I actually looked at all 599 of them over about 4 days. I judged them as fair as I could, and it came out Coleman by 27. The average of those completing it was Coleman up by 10. I think those who gave Coleman a narrower margin decided in Franken’s favor some of the ballots I disallowed for either candidate. I disallowed 116 and the average was 91. Most ballots were pretty clear cut, and the challenges were frivilous on both sides. Several ballots that had no vote cast in the senate race were challenged by Franken on the grounds that the voter had voted for obama, and therefore, the voter wanted to vote for Franken, but most have fogot to actually do that. Many other ballots were challenged because there were stray pen marks on completely different parts of the ballot. All in all, if this is a representative sample of the close to 6000 challenged ballots, Coleman’s lead will hold, and he’ll win by a razor think margin.
