The bubble beside Norm Coleman's name appeared to have both an X and a squiggle in it, but the Al Franken campaign wants the state Canvassing Board to rule on whether it should count. That's the only challenge in the special envelope in Plymouth so far, according to Sandy Engdahl, the city clerk and the official running the city recount.
The Canada geese milling on the grounds and parking lot of Plymouth City Hall were oblivious to the gaggle of election officials and observers inside. The drone of "Franken" and "Coleman" was accompanied by the swishing of paper in Medicine Lake Room A. Early on, Engdahl had to admonish some candidate representatives from trying to tell her counters how to count. Clearly, she said, the recount watchers are "very passionate," but she has to remind them of everyone's roles in this civic drama.
Eight of the 24 precincts had been counted by 1:45 p.m., and the only challenged ballot, in Engdahl's view, was clearly a vote for Coleman. Nevertheless, the Franken campaign was allowed to seek a second opinion.
Best comment on what is UNQUESTIONABLY a Coleman vote being disputed...
It is obviously from a racist voter who wanted to vote for Franken because he preferred misogynist tax cheats who will humiliate Minnesota, but poked himself in the eye while genuflecting towards the blow-up Obama doll in the voting precinct.

The bigger issue is, what the hell were Minnesotans thinking that so many voted for the comedian who is not even funny. But then again, I know the answer. Just take a look at the video on:

Sad bunch up there when you think about it, first Jesse Ventura (who was an OK guy and wrestling dude, but governor?),now this lowlife slug FrankenF**k.. and I mean lowlife.
