The margin in Minnesota's unresolved Senate race between Republican Norm Coleman and Democrat Al Franken has gotten tighter.
The latest figures reported to the secretary of state give incumbent Coleman a lead over Franken of only 204 votes Monday morning.
That's down 17 votes from the margin reported last week in tallies that are still considered unofficial. The difference of only about one-hundredth of 1 percent between the two candidates will trigger an automatic recount next week.
Officials in Minnesota's 87 counties are meeting to certify results.
