Coleman: Judges should 'set aside the election'

Obviously if Coleman is asking that the election be 'set aside' it means that they see no hope of winning it.

For more than a month, Norm Coleman stressed flaws in Minnesota's election system.

And on Monday, Coleman lawyer Jim Langdon wrote the three-judge panel to suggest the problems are so serious they may not be able to declare a winner.

"Some courts have held that when the number of illegal votes exceeds the margin between the candidates -- and it cannot be determined for which candidate those illegal votes were cast -- the most appropriate remedy is to set aside the election," Langdon wrote in a letter to the court.

Franken lawyer Marc Elias said the team will begin a case today that will include evidence "about the good job that the state of Minnesota did ... that the hardworking auditors and election night officials did. How the system worked, by and large."

just step aside.

they have such a tough time getting elected.

This is getting old. Enough, already! Tell him to get lost.

How is this even LEGAL?????

He was an incumbent who failed to win a majority which is pathetic. He needs to step aside.
