Yesterday, as Brett Favre flirted with the possibility of retiring after the season ends, Minnesota’s state canvassing board continued its painstaking review of all the ballots challenged by the Coleman and Franken campaigns in their never-ending Senate death match.

Meanwhile, that classic “Lizard People” ballot was tossed. How hard can the Seahawks be when you’ve already vanquished the Lizard People? [FiveThirtyEight]
