Update on Minnesota Senate Race

As the Franken campaign has claimed since recounting began, the continue their claim of a narrow margin of votes post-recount. These claims got some legitimacy this week then for a moment the canvassing board, after counting only the Franken challenged ballots, had Franken up my almost 200 votes. That has since been reverse after the counting of the Coleman challenged ballots.

The Minnesota Secretary of States office (official results) has Coleman up by 215

The Star Tribune (educated projections) has Coleman up by 188

It is difficult to dissect what the campaign and newspaper estimates contain and do not contain. Therefore it is probably appropriate to stick with the SECSTATE count reporting.

In case you didn't pay attention last week.

The sage continues....

You'll have to take the time to vote in our poll on the upper right hand side of this page.

If you're a GA resident, get out there and place your vote for Sen. Chambliss. We still don't know the status of Minnesota, but rest assured, putting Chambliss in office can either signal the first shot of the Conservative revolution, or possibly complete the 60 vote majority Democrats have been hoping for.

Knowing a little something about the state of Georgia, I will tell you that I'm confident in a Chambliss victory. Democrats are still high on the Obama euphoria, and they don't have much to get out and vote for. Republicans, on the other hand, can at least deflate the tires of the Obama express, slowing it down enough for us to make a few points while we get railroaded in the legislature. A filibuster-proof 60 vote majority in the Senate is simply dangerous. I believe a landslide victory by Chambliss (55-45%) will still prove to be a small victory for Conservatives on the national scale, but it will be the first of many to come.

It's time to jam up the cogs of liberal government...with some good old fashioned dissension! Conservative voices need to be 1) Conservative, and 2) heard.
