A swing of 475,000 votes and Dukakis would have won the electoral college. Not a landslide at all.

Please explain how that could have happened.



270-268

Someone check me, but I think if you flip these states, you could do it:

CA - 176,343
CT - 36,829
CO -  53,363
IL - 47,500
MD - 24,932
MO - 41,668
MI -  144,852
NM -  12,923
PA - 52,572

For a total of 414,639.  This was my first try.  There may be a better one.
