Minnesota Senate recount complete (almost): Coleman leads by 192 votes

Al Franken and the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party will certainly set loose their legal dogs of war, but the recount of the Minnesota US Senate race, save 133 missing ballots from Minneapolis, is over.

Norm Colemen, the Republican incumbent, leads Franken by 192 votes.

I am aware there are some disputed ballots, but just how many times do we have to count these ballots?

It could be up to a canvassing board to decide. They meet on December 16.

  1. If Coleman wins, which looks
    like it may happen, I think
    Franken will no doubt cry foul. I'm
    hoping Coleman is still ahead of
    Franken when the recount is offically over. The important thing
    here is, don't give up hope.
