Fun with ballots in the recount:
This Beltrami County voter cast their ballot for Al Franken, but also put “Lizard People” as a write-in candidate, not only in the U.S. Senate race, but for several others. The county auditor/treasurer ruled that the vote should not be counted because it’s considered an overvote. Representatives for Franken challenged that decision.
Yes, I know, serious business. Shouldn’t throw rocks at the Gopher Hole State from my glass house in Chicago.
But … Lizard People?
Don’t even get me started on the dude who wrote in Michelle Bachman’s name for Senate. Lizard People starts to look like the smart choice.
