Norm Coleman's Senate campaign has just released the following statement from campaign manager Cullen Sheehan:

“With Wright County completing its recount, an important phase of the Great Minnesota Recount has ended. While we are pleased that we remain ahead in this recount, we want to give our thanks and appreciation for all Minnesota’s local election officials for their commitment to a fair, legal and transparent process. We are confident that when the Canvassing Board begins meeting on December 16th and ultimately completes its work, that Norm Coleman will continue to be ahead, and will be re-elected to the United States Senate. This recount process showed the best of Minnesota with the commitment of election officials to do their best to give the best possible result for the citizens of the state.”
