Okay, so I just went to the Minnesota Secretary of State’s website…I had a comment to an earlier post that I need to verify. I had said that 2.5 million had voted for Senate in Minnesota. I was incorrect, more like 2, 885,502…but who’s counting? Ha! What I should have written was about 2.5 voted for either Franken or Coleman. Stupid mistake on my part, thanks for the post. I do try to be as accurate as possible, but I’ll admit sometimes I get a little excited and miss something.
Anyway, as I went back I noticed the Independent candidate Dean Barkley drew 437,389 votes. I started wondering who the Hell is this guy? After giving his website a quick look, he’s the guy that siphoned off votes for Franken! I’m kidding, kind of. I would hazard a guess that not many Barkley voters would have voted for Norm the Worm Coleman…
