I've read a few posts at fivethirtyeight.com, but never knew it was the website of a stats geek who decided to apply his gift to politics. Anyway, he's got an article on the odds of Franken winning the MN Senate race after the recount, using terms like "Correctable Error Rate (CER)." If that sounds sexy, click the link.
Hat tip to SK for the story.

Senator Franken from Minnesota?
Comedian Al Franken announced his intention to challenge Norm Coleman (R) for his U.S. Senate seat in 2008. I've been a skeptic ever since rumors emerged that he was considering it, but his announcement statement was pretty darn good. I'll be interested to hear how he proposes to pursue many of these "bread and butter" Democratic issues as a senator.
