Democrats may try to seat Franken
Even though he has not been certified the winner, and a legal contest is sure to follow.

Re: Democrats may try to seat Franken
Of course, but hardly the point.

Re: Democrats may try to seat Franken
I thought Franken was certified as the winner on Monday? If I'm mistaken about that, then I agree that he shouldn't be seated yet. However, that also shouldn't give the Republicans a blank check to file challenge after challenge to prevent him from taking his seat for as long as possible. If Coleman is still filing challenges in February and nothing has substantially changed, then I think Franken should be seated.

Also, wtf is Schumer talking about? I'd love to know the pressing matters facing the nation that it's absolutely crucial to have the junior Senator from MN there to address. |
