Found: 171 Uncounted Minn. Ballots

There may be hope for Al Franken yet: A flurry of last-minute Senate vote recounting in Minnesota’s Ramsey County has turned up 171 uncounted ballots from pro-Franken Maplewood. “The ballots apparently had been uncounted because of a ballot-counting-machine malfunction on Election Day,” the Star Tribune reports. The former Saturday Night Live star turned Democratic Senate hopeful gained a net 37 votes from the ballots, with 91 of the total, with Republican incumbent Norm Coleman picking up 54 votes and the remaining 26 going to other candidates. The final recount is expected to be finished on Friday.
