According to the Minnesota Canvassing Board, Al Franken beat his Republican opponent Senator Norm Coleman by 225 votes. As I said in my blog on December 4, 2008, there was a strong likelihood that Franken would win his Minnesota Senate Seat. I guess good things do come (occasionally for those who wait). Congratulations to Al Franken!!! When I met him last year, he was a very humble and cool guy that found it interesting that anyone would be interested in photographing him. I told him that I appreciated all that he had done to show the hypocrisy of Republican fat heads like Rush Limbaugh.
