I've searched and cant seem to find a good answer.

My Blonde Ale has fermented between 68-70 for 5 days, fermentaition has slowed, possibly stopped. Is there any benefit or problem with moving to my basement where is more like 62-64 degrees for the conditioning and secondary stage.
 
If your sure you've reached the FG of the beer...... you should be able to move it. Once fermentation is complete I often remove the carboy from my ferm. chamber to make room for another brew. I actually like to keep my kegs/bottles in the colder part of my basement to let them condition....
 
That's pretty much what I do. If you have a hydrometer take a reading for a couple of days in a row. If they are constant than you should be safe to move things to the basement.
