Minnesota Senate Race
The Minnesota Senate race has still not come to an end. It has now been 2 months since the elections, but we still don’t know the winner. Unfortunately, it is even farther away from voters and into lawyers hands.
The dispute about this is because Republican Norm Coleman filed a lawsuit on Tuesday challenging Democrat Al Franken’s recount victory.
“We are filing this contest to make absolutely sure every valid vote was counted and no one’s was counted more than anyone else’s,” he said at a Capitol news conference filled with cheering supporters.
“Democracy is not a machine,” Coleman said. “Sometimes it’s messy and inconvenient, and reaching the best conclusion is never quick because speed is not the first objective, fairness is.”
