Seating Al Franken....

Advertisements [?]

How come in the 06 congressional contest for Katherine Harris's seat in Florida, they seated Vern Buchanan while Christine Jennings filed a contest. Jennings actually attended "orientation" and was allowed to be photographed with the incoming congress, as her election was "unresolved". So why are they not seating Franken? They said in 06 it was because it was certified, they sat Very B. in Fla. That also must be done first before a losing candidate can file a contest.

Can anyone shed some light please on the situation of Al Franken, and why they are not seating him? That is what is being said.
