So is her mom, actually. Probably should just let her mom fuss at her. And I don't live in Minnesota. Oh well. Just hate to think that a little more voter education could have swung this thing.

Almost 200 uncounted, virgin votes, were just discovered in largely democratic Ramsey County, MN.
Jesus wants Franken to win.
OR
Jesus wants Coleman to lose.
Either way.

And Saxby is totally winning. :(
This is my 3rd (?) election, watching his bad campaigning, voting against him, and again it is all for naught.

In 2002 he ran against Max Cleland, a Dem who fought in Vietnam and lost two legs and an arm there. Saxby ran ads placing Clelands face next to Osama bin Laden, saying that they are both against America.
Saxby is that kind of person, and Georgia voters are stupid and uneducated enough to vote him into office.

I'm heading down right now to the local high school to place the lone vote for a Democrat in this county... voter fraud is pretty easy to spot up here in Deliverance land.
We get our local results by driving down to the town square and asking the guys standing by the blazing trash cans for the score... Rockwell meet Faulkner.

@Itsjustcatnip:
I've lived here in North Georgia for several decades and truly love this land and my neighbors. But crushing poverty and pervasive lack of educational opportunities haven't improved the political climate during my tenure and I see no end in sight.
Fortunately, our vote no longer has much influence on the nation... hopefully, Obama will forgive us the trespass of Saxby and send some of those ivory tower dollars to help us dig our way out of ignorance.

But, their numbers are flawed. Franken is only behind by 340 in their count because of the disproportionately high number of challenges by the Coleman campaign. So there calculation of who-needs-what-percentage isn't all that unrealistic for Franken to meet given that the Coleman campaign challenged everything, including any ballots that were split between McCain and Franken.

There is no such thing as a filibuster anymore. Nobody has had to do more than threaten to filibuster for 20 years. Basically, at many points in time, one pissed off senator can stop any piece of legislation he/she wants to.
