Just because you've "made your peace with it" doesn't mean the rest of us are sanguine with the DLF machine stealing elections.
I'm not criticizing you, just trying to learn about Minnesotans here... WHY would rural Minnesotans vote for a far-left nutcase like Al Franken? I just can't understand that...
I guess I'm under the illusion (?) that rural Americans (generally speaking) are fairly conservative traditionalists... pro-gun, pro-God, etc. Franken certainly doesn't fit that bill.
But there is the case that in multiple precincts, the replacements for “spoiled” ballots weren’t properly marked, and then in the recount the added the original spoiled ballots back in without removing the replacement ballots since they weren’t properly marked, meaning that some ballots were double-counted.
And there is the case where 133 ballots were missing in the recount, and the board decided to go back to the election-night count, when the law clearly states that if a recount is ordered, only those ballots which can be recounted are legal, and they have to use the recount vote.
And there is the case that Coleman submitted a set of absenttee ballots for consideration, and they were rejected falsely as being “too late”.
If Franken won, then he won, but he shouldn’t win because he got democratic operatives to accept his hand-selected absentee ballots counted, while ballots pretty much known to be republican were rejected.
And of course, we all saw by pictures how the board screwed up the recounting of poorly marked ballots — the public time and again selecting outcomes on those ballots favorable to COleman, only to have the board mysteriously reject Coleman ballots but accept dubious Franken ballots.
