“Lawyers for Mr. Coleman, who led Mr. Franken by 687 votes out of 2.9 million cast, said they would ask the State Supreme Court to create a framework for how the counties should review”
Surprising, the NY Slimes says Coleman up by 687!!! Just a few days ago the belief was that Coleman was up by less than 200. Crazy times, here we are rooting for a RINO.
Really! Whyn root for a RINO? Franken is the perfect rat Senator for 2009. I do not care if a RINO wins.
The 687 count includes votes that will be taken away from Coleman. 192 is about the lead after the recount.
Coleman has little chance to prevail. All rulings have gone to Franken’s favor. Yesterday the election commission voted to use the election day results showing 133 more votes than the manual recount. This bizarre decision will preserve 33 votes for Franken. The recount of the rejected absentee ballots will surely give Franken a lead of several hundred votes. I am not sure if these absentee voters will be able to recast their ballots as they did in Washington state. Coleman has little prospects to prevail.
