Yesterday, the Franken campaign challenged this ballot, claiming that "Brett Favre" was an identifying mark:

The Canvassing Board rejected the challenge and awarded the vote to Coleman.
Today, just moments ago, the infamous Lizard People ballot came up for the Canvassing Board's review!

This ballot was initially counted as a Franken vote. The Coleman campaign challenged the ballot, claiming "Lizard People" was an identifying mark. The Board voted to uphold the challenge, arguing that they couldn't be certain that "Lizard People" wasn't a real person's name.
So "Lizard People" might be a real person, but "Brett Favre" isn't?
