Al Franken was granted access today to information regarding voters whose absentee ballots were rejected, according to the Pioneer Press.

Ramsey County District Judge Dale Lindman ruled in Franken’s favor in a lawsuit filed last week.

This is another development in a Senate race that could very well feature numerous other lawsuits and heated arguments before all is said and done. The recount, which should last well into December, started today. Sen. Norm Coleman’s lead going in was 215 votes.
