MINNESOTA

All right, so I have to apologize in advance, b/c I'm kind of close to drunk... and in all of my time on DU I've never posted on here in that state before... But I rely on the expertise of the smart folks on this site... so, my question is: do we have a shot at the MN Senate seat? Or is that particular one lost at this point?

1. We have a really good shot...nearly tied, with blue precincts still counting!

2. There may be an automatic recount.

MN has automatic recounts when the first count is within .5%.

3. It is too close to call

Coleman is up .5% with 94% reporting.

4. CNN just updated.

Has Franken up by 990 votes. The SOS page won't load for me.

6. Thank you, everyone!

I'm glad that this one is still up in the air... It's probably the Senate seat that was the most important to me, if largely for symbolic reasons...

8. I agree! I am watching this one REALLY closely.

I love Franken, and want him in there because he'll bring truth to the senate. He's the only one that I can count on to do something because's it's right instead of making politically motivated decisions.
