236 votes. Out of 2,422,848. (How that is "nearly 3 million," as the Star Tribune suggests, is a little bit of a mystery to me, but whatever.)
236. And anyone doubts that their vote matters?
UPDATE: Aha, I know how that's "nearly 3 million" - it doesn't include the 15% of the vote that went to the Independent candidate, Dean Barkley. And anyone doubts that runoff voting is a good idea?

Have there been an unusual amount of agonizingly close/slow races this year, or have I just been paying more attention?
If they have runoffs, do they start campaigning again? Oh man, I may have to move.
I should have said INSTANT runoff voting(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting). Same idea, without having to listen to them talk anymore :)
