Minnesota: Franken vs Coleman update? There is no update...

Meanwhile, in Minnesota, Norman Coleman has defeated Al Franken by 215 (no we're not missing any digits there) votes. Seriously? After 3 million votes we're down to 215? Can you say automatic recount? This could take forever folks.

(oh, and thank you again, Barack Obama for running a 50-state campaign, because they're STILL counting in Missour-ah...)

Ready, set...recount:

"Attorneys for Franken argued that 49 of Minnesota's 87 counties 'have failed, in violation of the unambiguous requirements of state law, to canvass fully the results of the election.' As a result, they said, the board could not certify the accuracy of the vote totals reported by the counties. They asked the board to reconsider the rejected ballots in the recount, which could add hundreds, perhaps thousands, of ballots to a contest in which Republican Sen. Norm Coleman leads by 215 votes."
