1. If this is true, I sure hope it holds or increases for Franken. (nt)

2. There's something SERIOUSLY wrong here...
Cross-check the numbers...they don't match each other.

4. I'm just reporting the MN SOS. If the numbers are true, which I believe they are
Franken either has an almost 1300 vote lead, or a close to 1800 vote lead.

Either way, it's promising.

7. What strikes me is that the results show the "Nov 4" ballots as a win for Franken...
...whereas we both know that Coleman won that tally. And, since those totals don't jibe with the "RECOUNT" ballots, either, it's obvious those can't be the post-recount totals. There's something seriously wrong.

some of them probably saw this pic, and assumed that if Al gets into the senate, he would be caucussing with the gop. :shrug:

5. The Freeps just don't get it
Al Franken was doing this while getting paid for being funny.

Republicans do this to get sexually aroused.
