There were a total of 72 precincts in which at least 250 votes were cast, and same-day registration accounted for more than 35% of the vote in the precinct. Obama carried these precincts by 39,995 votes; Klobuchar carried these precincts by 45,338 votes; the marriage amendment lost in these precincts by 40,049 votes, and the voter ID amendment lost by 33,261 votes in these precincts.

I took the 2010 election results, and extrapolated the proportions in the race for Governor at the precinct level, determining the total number of votes each candidate would have received if all voters who were on the roll when the polls opened, plus all voters that registered on Election Day, had voted.

In short, using this method of projection, Mark Dayton would have won election by an additional 61,689 votes over Tom Emmer.

I broke it down further below the fold.
