The latest twist in the Minnesota recount is that 133 ballots in a heavily Democratic precinct disappeared yesterday. Or maybe not. In any event, when they counted the votes the first time they got 133 more than they did on the recount. So either the recount is right or the original count is right.

It does look like 133 went missing. If they can't find them this raises an interesting question, which is which count do they take? No one knows of course, but the Franken campaign filed a protest.

It appears to cost Franken 46 votes, with the lower recount number.

An interesting aside, which is that of the 2,029 voters in the original count, an incredible 932 voters registered in person on Election Day.
