Anyone from Minnesota? What is the status of the Franken/Coleman race?

Looks like they might do a recount? What is your opinion of the candidates? I don't know much about them.

    As of right now, Coleman is technically ahead by about 230 votes or so. But the day after the election, he was ahead by about 750 and since then it's been whittled down by 500. Coleman is likely the winner, but I'd be willing to bet that the Democrats find some way to pull this in favor of Franken. Just for the record, both are morons. Franken is just a much bigger one. So this is an example of the lesser of two evils and Franken takes the cake on the "more evil".

    I'm live in Minneapolis -- It was a very tight race -- less than 1% difference.

    Coleman has made his victory speech and Franken won't concede because he thinks there was voter suppression. Yeah - whatever.

    Coleman's ahead by a few hundred votes, but because of the small margin they are required by state law to do a recount.

    Franken lost.
