President Barack Obama’s nomination of Second District Appeals Court Judge, Sonia Sotomayor, has some wondering, as a question of legal process, who wil be successfully seated first: Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor — or Sen. Al Franken (D-MN).

The great majority of Minnesotans want Al Franken seated immediately if the Minnesota Supreme Court rules in his favor, but University of Minnesota professor Larry Jacobs thinks its possible that Pawlenty may try to use a decision against Coleman as part of his campaign for President.

We can’t let that happen.

Go here to sign the petition telling Tim Pawlenty to put Minnesota ahead of his national political ambitions and fulfill his legal duties by signing Al Franken’s election certificate.
