Frankin by 276

.....No, basket, it's still not over, but Coleman's "artificial" lead was shown to be a sham. Coleman pulled thousands of ballots for Frankin claiming that they were not real votes: some of the ballots showed voting for two candidates (overvotes) or not making a mark in the lines (undervotes), but by far the ballots that were challanged by Coleman were clearly for Frankin....clearly....I'd say that over 90% for the Coleman challenges have been credited (counted back) to Frankin. Frankin is now clearly in the lead.

The five man committee have looked at 500 challanges from Frankin, and 1030 from Coleman. This is the official count.

There are still some questions, like, will they count the absentee votes? It won't be over for some time now, but this is a real coup for Frankin.

...one hour lunch break.

See guys, imagine you could watch a committee hand counting the votes between Clay and Ruben. They are down to the 1,300 vote difference, and carefully looking to see who really got each fo the final votes.

I donno...I find it fascinating!
