from 1896 to the present have looked like? What I mean is, how would past elections have turned out with today's racial, ethnic, gender demographics etc, along with today's turnout and partisan patterns? How would the landslides of 1920, 1936, 1964, 1972, 1984, etc. have looked like with modern-day demographics? Would they have remained landslides? And which close elections (i.e. 1916, 1948, 1960, 1976, 2000), would have been decided differently?

Nixon still would win but McGovern would win all the strong D states. Same with Reagan vs Mondale.

Goldwater would have performed better in the west and upper south.

So what would that have looked like, on a electoral map?
