Minnesota Supreme Court: Franken Won

TPM’s Eric Kleefeld reports that the Minnesota Supreme Court has unanimously ruled in favor of Democrat Al Franken in his Senate election contest with former Sen. Norm Coleman (R-Minn.), reaffirming a previous decision by a lower court.

UPDATE: The decision is here (pdf). The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled that Franken is “entitled … to receive the certificate of election as United States Senator from the State of Minnesota.” Whether Minnesota’s Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty interprets this as an order to certify the election — which he has said he would obey — remains to be seen.

2nd UPDATE: The Minnesota Independent has more details.
