The final results from the senate recount are in. Franken has 225 more votes than Coleman. But wait! That doesn't mean he won. It sounds like he won, because whoever gets more votes wins right? But apparently Coleman has gone to court and filed a lawsuit to contest the results. Franken can't take up office while there is a lawsuit about his appointment so Minnesota is still with only one senator.
Yeesh.
Personally, I think it's a good thing senate terms are six years long or else whoever is finally appointed won't have any time to actually do anything in Washington.
