ShareST. PAUL, Minn. — Republican Sen. Norm Coleman is withdrawing 650 ballot challenges that his campaign lodged in the U.S. Senate recount.
The incumbent’s move today surpasses one made by his opponent, Democrat Al Franken, who withdrew 633 of his challenges on Wednesday. Thousands of challenges remain, and they could be pivotal in a race that Coleman was leading by just 316 votes in the latest count.
