From a new Star-Tribune poll, it's pretty clear that the people of Minnesota have had it with their former Senator:
Nearly two-thirds of Minnesotans surveyed think Norm Coleman should concede the U.S. Senate race to Al Franken, but just as many believe the voting system that gave the state its longest running election contest needs improvement.I bet the 28% who think Norm should keep going also approved of the Bush/Cheney administration.
A new Star Tribune Minnesota Poll has found that 64 percent of those responding believe Coleman, the Republican, should accept the recount trial court's April 13 verdict that Democrat Franken won the race by 312 votes.
Only 28 percent consider last week's appeal by Coleman to the Minnesota Supreme Court "appropriate."
Minnesotans also know by now that Norm Coleman isn't worrying about them, he's only helping the national Republicans by keeping Franken out of the Senate. For Norm and his GOP colleagues, this is a political game. For the people of Minnesota, it's about having full representation in the Senate during some very trying times. Republicans always put their political interests first.
