I seem to have two senators.

I'd entirely forgotten what that was like.

ETA: Suck it, Normie. Now go away, please.

Minnesota: six months of winter, six months of road construction, and eight months of vote-counting.

According to CNN, Coleman has conceded and called Franken to congratulate him.

He also called the governor to tell him to sign the damn certificate already. What a relief.

Well then, I think Governor Pawlenty should invite Private Citizen Coleman to attend a public signing of the certificate.

Welcome back to having equal expression in the Senate. Seriously, how was this allowed to go on so long?

We take our elections pretty seriously? Minnesota law is such that once there's a challenge there are three in-state levels of appeal, and it took this long to get through them all. In some ways it's a very good system, in that no one can reasonably say they haven't gotten a fair hearing. But I sure hope the legislature seriously considers a runoff system for the future.

Maybe all of the ballot boxes were still frozen shut.
