Al Franken appears to have lost one vote in yesterday’s Carver County U.S. Senate race recount. (Check the Secretary of State’s Web site for updates).

About 40 Carver County voting officials, overseen by representatives from Franken and Sen. Norm Coleman’s campaigns, are recounting the votes in Carver County Government Center training room. As of last night, the crew had counted 13 of Carver County’s 34 precincts, or about 40 percent of the total votes. A total of four votes had been challenged as of yesterday evening.
