Minnesota Supreme Court: Count rejected absentee ballots
Edited on Thu Dec-18-08 07:03 PM by SoCalNative
In a ruling crucial to the disputed U.S. Senate election, the Minnesota Supreme Court Thursday rejected an attempt by incumbent Norm Coleman to block the state Canvassing Board from counting improperly rejected absentee ballots.

However, the court ruled that the campaigns of Coleman and Democrat Al Franken, along with Secretary of State Mark Ritchie and vote canvassing boards establish a uniform standard for identifying and counting such absentee ballots. The court said they should then be added to the tally.

All still up in the air, I really think Republicans would love to prolong this as long as possible to keep another Democrat vote subdued.
