If we may turn our attention away from the Charlie Foxtrot that is New York politics for a moment: today the Minnesota Supreme Court ruled unanimously in favor of Al Franken, dismissing Norm Coleman's attempt to get the election results overturned, and ordering Governor Tim Pawlenty to sign the election certificate.
A few minutes ago Coleman offically conceeded the election, now almost 8 months distant, to Senator-elect--and soon to be Senator--Al Franken.
Elsewhere on the 'net, the congratulations are pouring in. From the now-no-longer-most-junior Senator Gillibrand.
From DSCC chair Senator Menendez.
And last but not least, from the President of the United States, Barack Obama. |
