12. Does anyone know if this will trigger a runoff election? |
|
Since it appears neither candidate will get a plurality of the vote (50%)?

24. No run-off in MN. Less than 1/2% margin triggers automatic hand recount. |
|
So results won't be official for 3-5 days. Hand recounts are more procedural formality; results rarely change by more than a few votes in a hand recount, as our opti-scan machines are usually pretty accurate.

31. At this very moment, it is a 1600 vote race. |
|
And the 'Pubs are all out of ammo.
We have very large counties still to complete reporting.
They have nothing.
And we have the Provisionals.

33. Assume 2% * the total non-Prov vote. |
|
And assume we get 3/5 of those.
