Al Franken needs volunteers to observe the recount. |
|
"Be A Volunteer Observer: These volunteers will be trained to observe the counting, identify ballots in question, and articulate the basis for the challenge. We need people who can attend a training this coming weekend, stand on their feet for hours at a time, and volunteer for multiple days or weeks throughout the recount process. Please go to www.alfranken.com/recounthelp right now to volunteer."
-Stephanie Schriock Campaign Manager Al Franken for Senate (from an email received November 11, 2008)

http://www.alfranken.com/page/s/recountHousing(from the same email) I read that Norm will have "120 lawyers" to cover every recount facility...will they be staying with supporters? Probably not (oh, wait, unless it's Norm's landlord).

8. I don't see why you couldn't bring a chair into the room, |
|

...even though the description says having to stand for hours.
I'm skeptical that they would tell someone who says he or she needs a chair because of a physical limitation "No chairs for you!" though I don't know.
