Here’s an electoral/political synchronicity.
On February 16 in an interview with Rachel Maddow, Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota predicted that no decision in the disputed Minnesota senate race between Norm Coleman and Al Franken would be made “until the ice melts on Lake Minnetonka.”
At 6 p.m. April 13, a three-judge panel determined that “Franken is entitled to receive the certificate of election” after defeating Coleman by 312 votes. Forty-two minutes later, the official ice-out was declared for Lake Minnetonka.
Norm Coleman apparently wasn’t impressed and decided to appeal.
