This lowers the bar nicely for the Coleman campaign ... Taking the state Canvass Board's Friday lecture to heart, Franken's campaign says they will submit no more than 500 challenges Tuesday. From their Sunday afternoon press release: Two days after members of the state canvassing board issued an urgent plea for campaigns to withdraw additional challenges in order to allow them to finish their work in a timely fashion, the Franken campaign today announced that it would have fewer than 500 challenges remaining for the board to consider on a ballot-by-ballot basis when it meets on Tuesday.

Dateline St. Paul, Minnesota. Al Franken pleased the board of elections on Friday last, when he stated that he only had five more votes he would like to submit appeals on this week.

Minnesotans are now confident the election results for 2008 will be confirmed by the next general election.

They will allow thousands of Frankin votes that were originally tossed out. He’s won already, this makes it look like this thing is still in doubt and he’s being gracious.

How many challenges has Coleman’s campaign made? Are they even fighting back?
