November 22, 2008

This is the place to look for recount data — updated from the Secretary of State’s web site every night.

A hat-tip to Minnesota Independent for the great neck-and-neck photo.

And this is the place to send your recount stories — editor@tcdailyplanet.net.

Day three recount results, November 22, 8 p.m.

Precincts Recounted: 73.24% (3025 of 4130)
Percentage of Ballots Recounted = 65.65%

November 4 votes from these precincts were 809,454 for Coleman and 784,022 for Franken — resulting in a Coleman lead of 25,432.

The recount totals changed the result to 808,785 for Coleman and 783,401 for Franken — resulting in a Coleman lead of 25,384.

The “other” ballots, as recounted, totaled 321,425.

Franken representatives challenged 945 ballots, and Coleman representatives have challenged 948 ballots. These ballots will be considered by the State Canvassing Board, which will decide whether they should be counted as Coleman, Franken or “other” ballots.

All recount results are incomplete and unofficial until the State Canvassing Board certifies the final results.

Choose your school

By James Sanna , TC Daily Planet

Saturday is School Choice Day in both Minneapolis and St. Paul. If you’re the parent of a student, you have the opportunity to send your child to either the public school in your neighborhood or a magnet school. You also have the opportunity to send your child to a charter or a private school. Both school districts, and metro-area charter schools, are planning one-stop information fairs where, they say, you can find out all you need to know about schools where you might want to send your child.

Weekend What's What 1/8-1/11: Hunt and gather

By staff , l'etoile magazine

Way to bounce back! The Twin Cities seem to have easily shaken off their holiday lethargy just in time for a pretty rockin’ weekend. Art exhibits, which have been on holiday hiatus as of late, are back in full effect; while rock shows and dance parties continue to ignite flames all over town. Our suggestion? Go out on the prowl! Meet some new people, see some new sights, and experience some fresh excitement. It is 2009 after all (an excuse we’ll be using throughout January, if not February). MORE »
