* Whereas the State of Minnesota November 2008 election for U.S. Senator ended in a virtual tie, and * Whereas the results of the election, when objectively tallied per state law by mechanical means, determined Sen. Norm Coleman to be the winner, and * Whereas the mandatory recount introduced hundreds of new balots which were not certified by precinct election judges on election day and disqualifing hundreds more, and * Whereas ballots were recounted using a subjective "determination of intent" method rather than a consistent objective standard, and * Whereas, ballot acceptance standards where not consistent for all Minnesota voters BE IT RESOLVED that we the undersigned voters of the State of Minnesota believe the certification of Al Franken as U.S. Senator to be illegitimate, desire a recall of Sen. Al Franken and desire a special election to select a legitimate representative for Minnesota in the U.S. Senate.
