14. I don't know which...

...site is accurate, but I am taking it directly from the Minnesota Secretary of State. I can;t imagine what would be more accurate than that, but I could be wrong... would love to see Al win.

18. This is closely watched they're counting provisional ballots now.

Franken is said to be ahead. I think the website is posting after real time. It hasn't changed since you last posted. The numbers have increased considerably since then.

Barkley (I) 419,086 15%
Coleman (R) 1,158,225 42%
