Currently, 100 percent of votes are counted and Coleman is ahead by less than 700 votes out of 2.4 million. No doubt a recount will be made.

There will be a recount. It was already announced earlier today. Franken needs to go back to Airhead America.

Heard Al made a really bad remark about his opponents wife.
Does anybody have what Franken said????????? That cost his his edge. Women voted against him. Twin Cities is a very tricky area when running for public office.
