MUST READ FROM THE STAR TRIBUNE: “COLEMAN CAMP TO DEPLOY LAWYERS, OBSERVERS FOR RECOUNT”
By Michael B. Brodkorb | November 11, 2008
“Sen. Norm Coleman’s campaign is concerned that an effort by Al Franken’s campaign to have 461 rejected absentee ballots counted might be an indication of further ‘shenanigans,’ a Coleman lawyer said today.
The Coleman campaign has received dozens of calls from supporters reporting other “disturbing” incidents, campaign attorney Fritz Knaak said at a news conference.
The absentee ballots Knaak mentioned were a topic at a meeting Monday of Hennepin County’s canvassing board, where the Franken campaign said it knew of 461 Minneapolis voters whose absentee ballots had been unfairly rejected. Dan Rogan of the Hennepin County attorney’s office said it was up to the state canvassing board to determine whether errors were made, and the board turned down the Franken campaign’s request to reconsider the disputed ballots.” Source: Star Tribune, November 11, 2008

Speakin’ o’ “shenanigans” – has Team Smokescreen ever offered up that Utility Bill that Mark Drake promised, TWICE?

While liberal nutjobs are attempting to steal an election, Tommy Brown Shirt can’t get off his irrational and idiotic obsession with a Senator’s utility bill.
Seek professional help.

Tommy – How about filing a data practices request for the utility bill once the recount is finished and SENATOR Coleman is officially reelected!

I thought the only must read pieces were tyhe ones falling out of Ron Carey’s bottom.
Guess I was wrong again!

So, those “conservatives” that drove the moderates and indpendents out of the party, continue to demonstrate “corruption doesn’t count” when it’s THEIR GUY.
All those lawyers Norm hired, for the re-count? He better keep them, for the ethics investigations.

Ballots discounted by election judges before there was an impending recount should stay discounted. Let’s face it, you must really have about eight strikes against you if they won’t accept your ballot in Hennepin County. Or anywhere in Minnesota for that matter. You need, what, a utility bill and a lying liberal to vouch for you? Make that OR a lying liberal…
