Rep Power: 398 | | | Franken Dealt A Blow Appeals? The Associated Press: Board keeps faulty ballots from Minn. Senate count Quote: Board keeps faulty ballots from Minn. Senate count
By BRIAN BAKST – 1 hour ago
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — In a blow to Democrat Al Franken, a state board ruled Wednesday that absentee ballots that were rejected by poll workers won't be included in Minnesota's Senate recount.
The five-member state Canvassing Board denied a request by Franken's campaign to reconsider absentee ballots it claims were excluded from the initial vote count because of technicalities or administrative errors. Republican Sen. Norm Coleman's campaign maintained the board lacked power to revisit those ballots....

Have fun in the all Democratic Senate Norm. |

Have fun in the all Democratic Senate Norm. The GOP didn't decide anything here. The canvassing board simply doesn't have the authority to consider absentee ballots. Are you starting to get how not reading things can really hurt your argument?

Rep Power: 19 | | | It baffles me that even the most radical liberal could put any faith in someone like Franken. The guy is a babbling idiot who even makes Barney Frank seem like a scholar. They complain about Bush, yet support Franken! LOL
As for election fraud, congratulations to the liberals, they won that title hands down after the spectacles which took place this election season. |

How truly immature. Slowly but surely the truth about Obama seeps out. |
