AL Franken Gaining

The implications that this recount are suggesting makes one reflect on how flawed the voting process is in America.

The duration and the mini psychodramas between these two camps are absurd.

America can get it right if there is a large margin of victory, but the close election is a train wreck.

A tragic aspect of all this is recalling how Gore did win it all in 2000. A recount at the presidential level seems far more important.

The change was notable because Coleman led Franken in election night returns and also held a 188-vote lead before the board took up challenged ballots. But its significance was limited, with the possibility the lead could change again before the long recount ends.
