Coleman's Lead Shrinks Again
In Minnesota's U.S. Senate recount, with about 46% of the 2.9 million ballots counted by last night, the gap between Sen. Norm Coleman (R-MN) and challenger Al Franken (D) continued to shrink, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Coleman now leads by just 136 votes, a drop from his unofficial lead of 215.
"Both campaigns claimed to be optimistic Thursday about the recount results, but for different reasons."
