The Minnesota Supreme Court has just denied GOP Sen. Norm Coleman's petition to investigate whether double counting occurred in the recount.
Here's the reaction from Al Franken's spokesman Andy Barr:
"Minnesotans have waited a long time to find out who won this race - and today's unanimous ruling means that the process can move forward despite attempts to halt its progress and cast doubt on the result. Now we approach the end of a recount that Minnesotans can be proud of - and one that we strongly believe will result in the election of Al Franken."
Waiting for word from Coleman's campaign. Coleman's campaign has a 3:15 conference call.
