Live video: Coleman v. Franken at the state Supreme Court

Franken (Aaron Landry) and Coleman (WDCpix)

Nearly seven months after election day, Minnesota’s unresolved Senate race sees another milestone today — and a chance to move closer to filling the state’s second seat. The state Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Norm Coleman’s bid to overturn a trial court’s ruling that Al Franken won the U.S. Senate election by a margin of 312 votes. Team Coleman wants the case to be sent back to the lower court under orders to consider 4,400 rejected absentee ballots for possible inclusion in the vote tally. If the state’s high court rules in Franken’s favor, Coleman may take his appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States.
