Yes, but when those ballots show the same markings for Coleman, the board rejects them.

Are there no requirements in Minnesota for filling out forms CORRECTLY??? This is the same kind of form used for standardized testing. If a student was taking the SAT for example, and filled out his form the way these people and others have (seriously, some looked like my cat stepped in ink and wandered all over the ballots), would the testers say, what the hey, the student INTETENDED to get the answers right, so we’ll just count it okey dokey since it won’t go through the computer properly...I mean, there’s no standards in Minnesota now for voting properly, anything goes and it will still be counted? What kind of PC crap is that? Doesn’t the state have any professional pride or ethics? If the rules were followed for forms to be filled out properly, this recount wouldn’t have been necessary in the first place, IMO!

Secondly, why bother with a recount at all? We know the foolishness that goes on when Demmies are desperate. Why not just pass a law that says say, if there’s a 500 vote or less difference between the candidates, automatic runoff? Wouldn’t that save the state a boatload of money and time it takes for recounts??

Feh. What a mess. What an absolute mess.
