GOP's Coleman concedes, sending Franken to Senate
Republican Norm Coleman conceded to Democrat Al Franken in Minnesota's contested Senate race on Tuesday, ending a nearly eight-month recount and court fight over an election decided by only a few hundred votes.
Coleman announced his decision at a news conference in St. Paul hours after a unanimous Minnesota Supreme Court ruled that Franken, a former "Saturday Night Live" comedian and liberal commentator, should be certified the winner.

Actually he could have gone to the US Supreme Court but no one thinks they would have heard the case. The delay was starting to work against him since the State had only one Senator for such a long period of time - even his supporters were sick of it. Apparently he will try to run for Governor (or think about it.)
