Democrat Al Franken Named Winner of Minnesota Senate Race

The former television comedian and liberal satirist ran a tight race against incumbent Republican Norm Coleman. The outcome has been subject to nearly two months of uncertainty as votes were recounted. Monday's results say Franken won the seat by 225 votes, out of nearly three million cast.

Coleman's aides say they will mount a legal challenge to the results. They say some ballots were mishandled and others were left out of the recount.


Woo Hoo!
