The battle between Al Franken and Republican Sen. Norm Coleman for the U.S. Senate seat in Minnesota is not about just one vote in the Congress.

It is about the rule of law

Senate Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reid was so determined to seat Al Franken as a U.S. senator, he tried to do it without him having an election certificate and before the judicial and recount process was finished in Minnesota.

Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie’s office attempted to disenfranchise overseas military voters, including those serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, for a technical matter over the voting forms they used.

Incredibly, Ritchie’s office relaxed the signature requirements for in person absentee voting — which helped Franken — but then refused to relax these same standards for military voters, including those in forward combat zones.

Al Franken claimed he was running to help our military in Iraq.

However, the Election Contest Court disagreed with Ritchie and is now reviewing some of these military ballots.

Because of Ritchie’s antics and Reid’s desires, the Minnesota Senate election is a mess and some leading newspapers are even calling for a runoff.

It is months after Senator Coleman won on November’s election night.

It has been months since Coleman first asked the Minnesota courts to follow the 7-2 portion of the Supreme Court’s decision on Bush v. Gore to treat all similar ballots equally. This legal principle was backed by liberal Supreme Court Justices David Souter and Stephen Breyer as well as the five conservative and moderate justices.

But as of now Franken, Ritchie, and Reid’s desire to disenfranchise select Republican voters, including those in the military, is helping to keep Franken in an artificial lead.
 
Al Franken is nothing more than a comedian, washed up at that, who has no business whatsoever in politics. I think they should have another election and make sure the standards are across the board. Al Franken doesn't want this...he knows it would turn out so much more differently than he hopes. Therefore, he keeps fighting.
 
And you guys accuse Gore supporters of being sore losers? Give it up. Your guy lost.
 
This is the way of the land, both parties steal and i can't blame them. Capitalism is by definition capitalizing.
 
I am surprised that you would cite Bush v. Gore. By its own words, the decision cannot be used as precedent -- "Our consideration is limited to the present circumstances, for the problem of equal protection in election processes generally presents many complexities."

My opinion of Bush v. Gore is similar to the statement by Alan Dershowitz -- "[T]he decision in the Florida election case may be ranked as the single most corrupt decision in Supreme Court history..."

Contrary to your assertion, Coleman did not win in November. Franken is the winner. The recount is over but Coleman now wants a new election. There is no precedent for that and, at this point, no good reason.
 
The US Supreme Court needs to end this show once and for all by seating Coleman, the election night winner.
 
To answer your question;

Make no mistake, liberals are making election fraud common in American elections. Being I am a Minnesotan I can tell you the whole story but to make it short, during the recount Barack Obama lost over 100 votes but Franken gained almost 500 votes. How is that possible with out voter fraud by liberals,
