I am really broken up over this one.  I got too emotionally invested in it even though I always suspected Coleman would pull through.  as Xahar said, the margin is small enough that we can hope Minneapolis steals it for Franken, as King allegedly did for Gregoire four years ago.

Is there anything still outstanding in Minnesota? Provisionals? Absentees? What could possibly influence the margin? I'm just remembering our Attorney General race, where Creigh Deeds lost by half this margin and a recount didn't change anything.

they have to recount, which the SoS says may well spill into December

does Minneapolis have its own Dean Logan that can 'find' some ballots?

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?
