Court Rules Franken Has Won Senate Race; Coleman Concedes


By Kate Phillips

Updated The Minnesota Supreme Court has just issued its long-awaited judgment in the Senate race, declaring that Democrat Al Franken is the winner. And Norm Coleman, his opponent, at 4 p.m., announced that he had conceded and contacted Mr. Franken.


The 32-page unanimous decision by the state’s highest court was released after a seven-months long battle over the seat formerly held by Norm Coleman. On every ground, the judicial panel rejected Mr. Coleman’s claims of trial errors or constitutional violations, and decided that Mr. Franken’s election should be certified by the state as valid.


Mr. Coleman stepped outside his home just a short while ago to give his news conference. He indicated that he and Mr. Franken had a positive, personal talk and he told the Democrat that being senator was the “best job he’ll ever have.”

  3. They are masters at stealing elections. That's what community organizing is all about. The Bush-Gore election was a good try for them, but now they have taken a lesson from that one and have it down to a science. Our Democratic Republic is a has-been. Hello socialist-dictatorship. They'll be winning them soon just like they do in Iran.

  8. Uh newsflash for anon 6:09 three, yes thats 3 recounts were conducted in Florida sponsored and supervised by the liberal media, i.e the New York Times, Miami Herald, and possibly the Washington Post. And each time, bush was ahead and won the recount. So , uh, you do watch tv, don't you mr. 6:09??? So, I don't think Bush stole the election, no matter how comfortably it fits into your paradigm of how things should be, and not how it really was.
