The never ending Minn. race

This race seems like it is going to go on forever lol I really think the people should decide on who they want to rep them. It really doesn't seem like a court issue and our courts are already so clogged it's crazy. Maybe soon this race will end and the people up there can get on with their life.

Cripe, will this ever go away? I know I'm a bit late lil, sorry. Franken is a BAFOON and the thought of him in congress would be hillarous if it weren't so serious. but if thats really who Minnisota wants representing them, who am I to say. *shrug*

There isn't an honest, honorable person in the US who should treat the comic genius turned political criminal with anything but contempt. He, and everyone else who rigs elections are the embodiment of the term "enemies at the gate".

We need to come up with a method of voting and counting the votes that's as close to foolproof as it's possible it get. Whenever there's an election as close as this one there are going to be unhappy people, let's face it. There will always be allegations and accusations of wrongdoing and as long as there are lawyers there are going to be lawsuits. What we need is some kind of uniform election laws nationally and consistent standards for counting the votes and for what ballots get accepted and what ones are rejected. Like I said, when it's this close whichever side loses is going to be very angry and is likely to claim the election was stolen from them. I don't know if it's a new trend or not. For this sort of thing to happen you first have to have a razor thin election, which this one certainly is. Annie

They should just throw this crap out and have a runoff election like they did in Georgia. I've heard people say that will cost taxpayer dollars. My answer to that is that we've now spent over 2 months worth of taxpayer dollars paying people to go through these ballots over and over again trying to determine who these people voted for. People in Georgia must be laughing at Minnesota since their runoff ended with a decisive vote that left no question who the winner was shortly after the original election.

I saw the other day that Franken was leading by 50 votes now they say he is leading by 250 votes, so it looks like his lead is growing and I believe they said there were like 1500 votes to be counted. I don't know why it takes so long to count votes. The Supreme Court is a joke, they are appointed by the President who is in office. Right now and during the 2000 election it was controlled by a republican majority. So the vote is always slanted to the ruling party. Decisions don't seem to be made to benefit the person or cause that is right, they are made politically.
