I was born in 1990, so actuarially speaking, I should be around until 2075-2085 barring an unforeseen circumstance.

Using that math, I will see 14-17 more presidential elections. Chances are I will see quite a few realignments, and probably a couple 1972/1984 style landslides. If I had to pick two states to keep up their respective streaks over the next 60-70 years I'd go with Wyoming and Hawaii, but I'd still give both less than 50% odds.

Is everybody totally writing off the possibility of another 1912 at some point in our lives? Something like that could totally screw up any conventional wisdom we have about trends. Woodrow Wilson won Idaho with 32% of the vote in that state...something like that could flip MD or WY in the right circumstance.
