Today’s the day in Minnesota: we might have a new Democratic Senator in Al Franken. The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee’s Arjun Jaikumar is live blogging and twittering from inside the courtroom where Sen. Norm Coleman’s challenge of a ruling favorable to Franken is being heard. Tune in for what appears to be some good stuff for our side:

10:04: Coleman attorney Joe Friedberg: We’re making due-process and equal-protection claims. Admits the due-process claim came only recently. “You changed the rules after the game was played”. Ha ha ha.

10:08: Justice Anderson: “Why is this offer of proof not inadequate?” Ouch.

10:14: Not an auspicious start for Friedberg. The justices seem very impatient and unimpressed…

10:24: Justice Anderson: “As loud as you speak on this issue, there’s language here you just can’t overcome”.

10:25: Marc Elias is on for Team Franken. He is one handsome devil.

10:32: Team Franken lays down numbers, coldly and efficiently. There are fewer disputed ballots where voter wasn’t registered than the margin between the two candidates.

See what I mean? Riveting!
