Nate Silver has it at Coleman +1 if anyone cares.  But it assumes that the current rates of pick-up continue.

The hilarity be unparalled no matter who wins if it is a one vote race

If Franken wins, this will be the greatest example of election stealing in American history.  Republicans should play this up for years

I don't really consider that election "stolen".  That election was given away as part of a compromise, most likely if vote counting continued Tilden would have won.

And for those who say 2000, I'd love to see the point where Al Gore lead by 800 votes as Coleman did

I fail to see how counting absentee ballots amounts to a stolen election. Is counting all the votes a bad thing now?

It has nothing to do with that its incidents like the 100 ballots they happened to find for Franken
