Franken Leading?

Posted by: Matt Lewis at 2:47 PM

Well...not really. According to The Hill, Al Franken's campaign claims that their internal vote totals show him leading Norm Coleman by 22 votes. Most media reports, however, are showing Coleman up by about 300 votes. A Coleman spokesman is quoted as saying that Franken's numbers are "not credible, and we expect the media to demand the full and complete explanation."

Franken...
had the audacity to assert that ALL ballots that were marked for Obama for POTUS, but had NO MARKINGS AT ALL in the US Senate election, should be counted in his favor because the voter selected the Dem for POTUS.......... Oh well.......let's see if that Dem Minnesota SecState tallies it honestly or not.... Not that big of a deal now anyway...... Since WE GEORGIANS blocked the Obama puppet, Jim Martin, from being elected and giving "The One" an fillibster-proof Senate........... We found it to be a prudent move to re-elect Saxby Chambliss......

Democrat Recount Rules
Keep counting until the Democrat is ahead. Then stop counting.

The ONLY way
Franken-Stein will win is if the "RATS" are allowed to count the votes.

I'll try to explain
since Matt seems unwilling or unable The numbers in the media which show Coleman ahead by around 300 do not include any of the more than 4,000 challenged ballots. The Franken number includes challenged ballots. The method they used for tallying them is to use the local election judges ruling. These rulings are not final as the canvassing board is the final voice on all challenged ballots, but it's far from an unreasonable estimate.
