2. is this the rejected/disputed ballot count?

franken has to win by how much to overcome coleman's lead in the recount?

i'm so confused.

[NMDemDist2]

4. yes. and he's already overcome Coleman's lead by 252.

there's absentee ballots yet to count (which should favor Franken as Dems were encouraged to early vote)

[Idealism]

7. Then why does the star only project a 75 vote victory for Franken?

Confusing...

[Hassin Bin Sober]

15. The StarTrib is saying the "awarding" of the withdrawn challenges WILL affect the outcome.

The question is who withdrew more challenges.

[kikiek]

18. According to the paper it is still Franken by almost 80. That is their projection.

[Sebastian Doyle]

6. How big of a lead does he need to stop the used car salesman from any more legal bullshit?

I realize both candidates are Jewish, but I'm sure all of the recounters aren't, so I don't anticipate this shit going on through Christmas. And shouldn't someone be ready to be sworn in on January 6?

[nadinbrzezinski]

13. Oh com'on the eight nights of hanukah and counting votes

:-)

Ah the miracle will be if Coleman stops the bullshit

[bunnies]

8. But... absentee ballots wont be counted until next week.

the drama continues...

17. The part that worries me...

... is that the withdrawn challenges are not included in the totals yet. I think.

How many challenge withdrawals did each side have?

[kikiek]

21. The Star and Trib projects Franken will still be ahead by 78

[underpants]
