Since less than 9,000 votes separated Democrat Mark Dayton and Republican Tom Emmer in the governor's race, a recount was called and will be started Monday, according to an article in the Minnesota Daily.
All 2.1. million votes cast will be counted by hand and a state canvassing board will reconvene Dec. 8 to determine the winner.
The Star Tribune reported that four of Dayton's attorneys had handled Senator Al Franken's recount in 2008, while Emmer's team includes one of the attorneys that represented Norm Coleman.
