Critical Counties

Tim Bearden
Editor-in-chief

The Minnesota Senate race has come down to two key counties for an Al Franken victory. 

Cass county has less than half of the precincts reporting in the Senate race that could be a key win for wit and Pine county now has a little more than half already in. 

Franken trails incumbent Norm Coleman by approximately 10,000 votes and no one is laughing just yet. I, however, must say that it looks pretty wrapped up. I don't think, even with only 83 percent of the precincts reporting, our jovial critic of the ridiculous right is going to pull this one out. 

We have to call Minnesota for Coleman. We do hope for a Dewey defeats Truman projection, but we can't give our candidate the win even with this tight of a race. 

As all comics know, when the material isn't working, it's time to say goodnight and gracefully leave the stage.
