I don’t understand why if there were two counts and there were different winners why does the Franken one dictate the result?
Because unfortunately the so-called more accurate manual recount was the last count, even though the demoRATs cheated & scammed by using a machine recount in one precinct in Mpls because they just KNEW that an envelope of 133 ballots was missing.... which sent 46 more votes to Frankenstein than Coleman. And numerous other inconsistences in demwit precints, all par for the course.
Remember in WA state in 2004, Dino Rossi won the 2 machine recounts but lost the 3rd & final manual recount when the dims kept finding 10,000 ballots, than another 150 ballots, then ballots here, ballots there.... the moment the count favored Christine Fraudoire by THREE votes, she declared herself to be the winner. In the end it was 110 votes or so, and the RINO coward SOS immediately certified Fraudoire as the governor. Went to court, duly noted the inconsistencies numbering in the thousands, and the demoRAT court judge promptly ruled the election results were valid and would stand. That is how demoRATs cheat & steal & win close elections when you can always count on liberal corrupt judges to rule in demoRATs favor. I give Norm Coleman no more than 10% chance that he will now be able to pull this one out.
