...most of the reasonable election officials of the Minnesota counties started sorting the rejected ballots into five neat little piles, in case the state canvassing board decided (as it did Friday) that the ballots should count. One of those fifth-pile votes, the Franken camp discovered, belonged to Erick Garcia Luna, the chairman of the state Democratic Latino caucus, who voted absentee because he was volunteering the day of the election.

However, despite his best efforts, third-year graduate student Erick A. Matsen is announced as the winner over a dramatic piano overture, having consumed 807.5 grams of apple pie in three minutes and 12 seconds. Matsen attributes his win to stellar mental preparation. “I actually was a runner-up last year but I hadn’t gone in believing in myself. This year, I just believed in myself,” Matsen says.
