Al Franken Projected to Win
It has been a very long time since November 4th in the General Election which won the Presidency for the Barack Obama team and the Democratic Party by a landslide.
The state of Minnisota is still counting votes for their senate seat and the very close race is being watched by both parties six weeks later. It has been a tight race and each week either the Republican candidate Norm Coleman won by a few dozen votes, then Franken comes back with a few more votes. The more time that passes real clear politics is in play with this recount of the recount.
It is a prediction, if a prediction is entirely possible at this time that Al Franken will win the seat and defeat his Republican opponent finally as all the ballots are almost recounted. There has been a counting and more recounting for the last six weeks adn the two candidates have initiated a way to include the previously excluded absentee ballots that were rejected last week.
The Huffington Post has been reporting on this recount for weeks with no clear winner declared this has all been speculative at best.
On November 4th Coleman was in the lead by 725 votes, but Fox News also reported days ago that Franken is projected to win for the Democrats which increases their lead in the Senate.
Only time will tell if Minnisota is still counting on Al Franken in this real clear politics.See Also: Franken Wins Again and Again and Again
