RNC STATEMENT ON MINNESOTA ELECTION CONTEST
WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Robert M. “Mike” Duncan released the following statement tonight.
“Minnesota law reads that an election contest – not Harry Reid – should decide the winner of a contested election. The efforts of Al Franken, Harry Reid and Chuck Schumer to steal this election and seat Al Franken despite not having an election certificate are unprecedented.
“When elections are being decided by double-counted votes and double standards in the treatment of absentee ballots, there must be a remedy to get an accurate and valid vote total – that remedy is an election contest. That is the law of Minnesota enacted by the people of Minnesota. The people of Minnesota deserve to see their laws followed.
“I am confident that if the law is followed, Norm Coleman will be taking his rightful seat in the U.S. Senate.”
