A senior Democratic Senate aide told us a short time ago, but before Norm’s concession, that Franken could be seated as early as next week. I suspect it’ll be sooner than that now.* Franken has waited a very long time for this. At least one member of Congress has stepped down and her successor been elected in the time Franken was waiting for his race to be resolved.
*Poor Al — I’m reminded that the Senate isn’t in session until next week. So he’ll have to wait a little longer.
