4. yes. and he's already overcome Coleman's lead by 252.

there's absentee ballots yet to count (which should favor Franken as Dems were encouraged to early vote)

7. Then why does the star only project a 75 vote victory for Franken?

Confusing...

15. The StarTrib is saying the "awarding" of the withdrawn challenges WILL affect the outcome.

The question is who withdrew more challenges.

18. According to the paper it is still Franken by almost 80. That is their projection.

6. How big of a lead does he need to stop the used car salesman from any more legal bullshit?

I realize both candidates are Jewish, but I'm sure all of the recounters aren't, so I don't anticipate this shit going on through Christmas. And shouldn't someone be ready to be sworn in on January 6?

17. The part that worries me...

... is that the withdrawn challenges are not included in the totals yet. I think.

How many challenge withdrawals did each side have?
