A caffeinated wait

Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Al Franken is waiting on a smattering of election results from around the state at 3:30 a.m. It could be a long wait.

Franken’s spokesman Andy Barr offered some goodwill in the form of coffee to the members of the press as he explained that the wait will last until all precincts have been reported to the Minnesota secretary of state’s office.

"The good news is we are getting coffee, and we will try to get enough for everyone," Barr said.
