Al Franken Is About to Become a Senator

Definitely.

The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled unanimously today that the Minnesota Democrat beat Norm Coleman in November and is entitled to be seated in the U.S. Senate.

Coleman finally conceded later in the afternoon, and Govenor Tim Pawlenty said he’d sign the formal election certificate.

Franken is expected to be seated next week, after the Senate returns from its July 4th break.
