Actually, Immie, that's not how it happened. At all. The election resulted in such a slim margin of victory that a full statewide recount was required pursuant to Minnesota election law. The legally required recount, one that neither candidate had to ask for, is just now being completed. It is the first and only recount that has taken place.
I can understand people not liking Democratic candidates, but I don't really understand what that has to do with making shit up about the recount process in Minnesota.
And for those of you still repeating the lie that Senator Coleman's attorney was spreading some time ago, it has been thoroughly debunked. In fact, Coleman's attorney isn't even peddling that horseshit anymore:
