As illegal as it sounds, this paper is definitely suggesting that no-votes on the Senate ticket who voted for Obama should be cast for Franken.

Had I known I could claim the no votes for a political office, I may have run myself.

That's not my take on it. I read though the whole thing, they are predicting that the recount will find more Franken votes than Coleman votes. They are basing this prediction on an analysis of the voting totals for other candidates in the precincts that had the highest under-votes in the senate race. Since the margin of victory is so small and the number of under-votes large it will only take a small percentage of "hanging chads" to throw the election to Franken.
