There were some developments in the likely recount in the Minnesota governor's race Friday afternoon.
Democrat Mark Dayton still unofficially leads Republican Tom Emmer by more than 8,700 votes.
But earlier in the week, Emmer's side asked the Minnesota Supreme Court to intervene and force local elections officials to go back and compare the number of votes cast in the race with the number of people who actually signed in to vote.
MPR's political editor, Mike Mulcahy, spoke with host Tom Crann about the latest developments, and what's likely to happen over the next few days.
