In this case Franken's team has been better at this. What is more concerning is the Senate moving toward deciding who will be seated and who won't be seated. Think about what this really means. If they want they can deny a seat to anyone without any cause. Elections can be basically overturned by the majority or blocked by a filibuster by the minority. This is a dangerous direction to be taking politics given there are two seats that are having these types of issues.

Don't cry sour grapes just because the MN Election board isn't in bed with the GOP like FL. I could say the same thing about the Republicans in 2000 and possibly 2004.

There is no need for the Senate dems to do any provisional seating as they know the outcome will be Franken. This election theft began with the small democrat precincts in remote Northern MN changing vote tallies even before the recount, claiming "errors made by exhausted poll officials".. The Secretary of State is a george Soros-backed hack. The "improperly rejected absentee ballots" were suddenly deemed improperly rejected by these same democrat poll officials that changed vote tallies before the recount, found extra ballots in the machines thatwere cast time stamped two days before the election date.. and could notmatch 133 Franken votes in te recount in democrat U of MN precinct but counted them anyway...oh and don't forget the guy who had democrat votes in the trunk of his car... the democrat supreme court ruled that the officials who suddenly decided in the recount that they had improperly rejected absentee ballots would not be questioned and the counting of these ballots wouldbe left to them instead of the bi-partisan Canvassing Board...I HATE democrats who are anything but democratic.. election-stealing turds...
