Franken Wins Election; Coleman To Challenge Ruling

According to several reports, the Minnesota State Canvassing Board ruled today that Al Franken has won his bid to defeat GOP douchebag senator Norm Coleman in Minnesota. The current margin of victory is 225 votes or 0.0077%, according to the Huffington Post. The big loser crybaby Senator Coleman is expected to challenge the results, but that would likely require a federal court willing to hear the argument from the losing campaign which some analysts think is unlikely to happen. Governor Tim Pawlenty and Secretary of State Mark Ritchie (a democrat) must co-sign the certification within a week.
