Now What’s The Excuse?
The BBC reports that there’s a Minnesota senate win for Franken
Democrat Al Franken has won the disputed 2008 Minnesota Senate race, after his Republican opponent Norm Coleman conceded victory.
On election night last November, voting machines gave Mr Coleman a narrow 215-vote lead, triggering a recount.
Mr Franken won the recount, prompting an appeal from Mr Coleman. Earlier on Tuesday, however, Minnesota’s Supreme Court rejected Mr Coleman’s arguments.
Now there will be a scramble for Harry Reid to find a new reason why he can’t get anything worthwhile through the Senate.
