Minnesota US Senate Results (Coleman gains 2 votes from Yesterday!)
Minnesota Secretary of State's Office ^ | 11/07/08 | MplsSteve

Posted on 11/07/2008 9:31:19 AM PST by MplsSteve

In amended counting today, Coleman gained 2 votes and is now up by 238 votes.

2 votes is not many - but I'd rather gain 2 votes than lose 2 votes.

If there's an update later today, I'll let all of you know!

We need this seat!

Coleman’s not my favorite guy in the world, but at least we can count on him to filibuster things like card check.

I am sure there is a box of ballots in some liberals garage with broken seals and pry bar marks on it that will contain Franken’s winning votes.

Franken picked up 100 not long ago.

His methods seem to pan out better, golly darn.

Get the lawyers ready. Democrats can manufacture 300 votes without breaking a sweat

I really don’t understand what accounts for changes in vote numbers.

The new ballots have to be printed and then filled out by Acorn first.

This is to “prove” that, once Franken’s allies “discover” enough additional votes to put F into the lead, those allies can say, “See? There was no ‘fix.’ Why, we found SOME additional votes for Coleman, too! So go away now and stop asking questions.”

“...not my favorite guy, but...”

Here’s a ‘summary chart’ on free trade from Cato Institute:

http://www.freetrade.org/congress?senator=26

Opposes barriers to free trade but soft of subsidies.

You can click on any senator to get this ‘overview’. I have the site in ‘Favorites’ in IE.

Zaaackly. "We find 2 for Coleman! Good news! See, we're fair in the recount!...

"...Oh, oh! Weeelll, lookie here! Seems someone forget to carry the '1' on one of Al's sheets! That 100 for Al! Sorry, Charlie!"

Yup. They “find” hundreds for Franken. But now that they found 2 for Coleman they can state they were fair and the fix was`nt in.
