MN may have as many as 6000 undervotes...

still tough for Franken to make up the gap with that; he's down less than 500 now, which means assuming all of the 6000 are counted, he'd have to win by a decent amount (especially considering many of the votes won't be for either he or Franken).  FL 2000 once more, kids.

any absentee/military still hanging in the balance?

Actually these undervotes probably favor Franken. See, once you insert your ballot into the counting machine, it either accepts it or lets you know there's an error, in which case you can either let the ballot count with the error an essentially cast a spoiled vote for that race, or have it returned, where it'll be shredded and you'll get a new ballot. The catch is that most people likely to choose the former are people who waited in long lines and just wanted to get out of there (This actually happened with the girl in front of me.). And we all know where the long lines were...
