Just a 50 state Democratic landslide using 2012 as a starting point. I didn't have a particular scenario in mind for this.

This is somewhat off topic, but not really. I notice that you were kicked by the moderator, CalBear, again, on AlternateHistory.com for posting the satirical Rutherford map. He really had little patience or tolerance for what I found to be a humorous take on my character. If I were you, I would try to tread more carefully over there.

They kick people like it's going out of style over there. I've gotten banned twice in the past six months.

1914 Confederate Presidential Elections
The 54 straight years of Democratic dominance over the confederacy were ended tonight, with the Populist-Whig Alliance winning their first ever presidential victory, by a 4 point popular vote margin and with 12 more electors than required.

Are the Democrats red or blue?

Red.

Here is a revised version of my Holland county map. I went back and changed many states to make them more reflective of the results, and to make the map "cleaner". I'm also posting this to help bump the thread back up. Comments and questions are greatly appreciated:

Yes, I have a comment: This is the same idea of a map you've made over and over and over again for countless times. You've been at this for two or maybe three years now. It's not a bad map but you've played out the idea like nuts.

This isn't the Rutherford scenario: it is another one, which I developed more recently. I've actually developed this one far beyond the previous scenario I've had, and I've made continual revisions, as I've tried to make this map more realistic.

It is still the same scenario of "Democratic incumbent president wins massive landslide against unpopular republican." They all look practically identical, and are essentially spam at this point.

Guess what this is.

Tied West Virginia from the 2016 election results?

The 2016 Columbia Attorney General Election.
Sitting Attorney General Roy Cooper was narrowly favored throughout the race, and the election day results proved his polling lead true, as he won re-election by nearly five points. His victory meant that the Democratic party had now held the Columbian Attorney Generalship for five straight terms.
Columbia Attorney General Roy Cooper (D): 51.43%, 13,960,416
Northern District Circuit Court Judge Daniel Donavan Jr. (R): 46.57%, 12,667,020

Some of these county results seem a bit random. is there any reasoning behind them?

Which results?

Something to do with the % black by county?

294-244 DEM

Closest DEM state: NV

Closest GOP state: OH

Tipping point state: NV->MA->IL

Most GOP state: ND

Most DEM state: MS

With all that out of the way, can anyone guess who the GOP nominee is?

margin of victory map for the above

Nobody responded to these maps, so I'm uploading the county map. Maybe with this one can form a correlation with something...

Something to do with the percent of the population that is black?

2068 Presidential Election in Illinois

Governor Ariana Ward (R-WI)/Governor Wyatt Kelly (R-UT): 50.64%
Senator Nayara Bustos (D-NV)/Governor Madison Barnes (D-KY): 46.48%
Other: 2.88%

[Kyle Rittenhouse is a Political Prisoner]

Huh, yeah. Looking over my numbers again, this is essentially even, not R+6 under current population numbers.

I've done a map of Gary Johnson winning the same national percentage as Donald Trump against Hillary Clinton. Donald Trump is a minor nationalist candidate winning the same percentage as our Gary Johnson.



Biggest achievement for Johnson - he flips Travis TX! This while the state swings against him relative to OTL Trump due to little support in the Houston metro. Johnson keeps Orange CA as well, while Clinton is widely successful in the deep south and is better off in OH than IL.

 

What would the electoral map look like here?

Nevada probably goes for Johnson since he's winning Washoe with a majority of the vote. Arkansas looks very close as well.

Nevada is 47.43% Clinton, 46.13% Johnson. Arkansas is 43.08% Clinton, 47.38% Johnson.

The 2076 Presidential Election
President Eliza Castile (R) defeats Former Vice President Madison Barnes by a towering margin in the electoral college and popular vote.

Is there any reasoning behind the results or are they mostly random?

I have a lot of reasoning behind these results. Basically, for every county I took wealth and education indicators, demographics, local factors, and climate change, and used that to figure out results. Republicans win among non-black voters, well educated voters, and northern voters.

This election seems like deja vu, being a repeat of the election of 1976 from a century earlier, but with a strong Republican victory. Did you base this off the Cordray realignment timeline?

Yes, and Kentucky is strongly democratic because the democratic candidate was the former governor of that state.

I see. What would the electoral map look like? And have you created a basic outline of U.S. political history from the end of the Cordray timeline through 2076?

Castile wins big, and if you want to follow the timeline you should look at America the Phoenix, by The Walrus and Spenstar.

There is a hint in the image name.

Is this a slightly altered 2016?

Namely, a 3 pt shift?

Probably the strangest election map ever

Several of those are definitely wrong.

Here's a map of the alternate 2012 presidential election in my New Rutherford Scenario, as fleshed out on the Random Maps thread:

It can also be viewed here: https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/novelas/images/1/10/United_States_presidential_election_results_by_county%2C_2012_%28plain%29.png/revision/latest?cb=20180819063413.

Rutherford wins ~1,665 counties here, as compared to Romney's 1,479.

Booooooooooooooooo how does Rutherfraud lose Washington County

Rutherfraud? Which Washington County do you refer to?

Oregon of course.

No offense meant, just highly curious.

'Rutherfraud' is a (admittedly illogical) ref. to Rutherford B. Hayes.

I see. I devised this scenario in an alternate timeline, in which the Democratic Party retains more of the non-college educated white vote and more of the rural vote, while the Republicans remain the party of suburbs and white-collar professionals. This map depicts a 8% Democratic victory within that scenario. It is one in which Ronald Reagan never becomes President, Jimmy Carter lost the election of 1976, and the Republican Revolution did not occur to the same extent that it did in our timeline. Hence, why Romney wins not just Washington County, OR, but also the collar counties around Chicago, among others. And why Rutherford does so well in much of the rural Midwest and in Appalachia.

K got it. Can I see the link to the TL?

The timeline is not fully fleshed out (and probably won't be), but I have created an extensive series of pages on the alternate 2016 election within this scenario. The main page can be found here: https://fiction.wikia.com/wiki/United_States_presidential_election,_2016_(Alternate_Version). I will be posting the map from that scenario here momentarily.

Ooh, that just reminded me of the third reason why I dislike you. Your article for 2016 was a literal copy of the wikipedia article for the 1964 where you changed a few terms. It was unbelievably blatant and lazy. Look at this

It's literally word for word identical in the vast majority of it. His part in writing it was a few minor changes to make it fit better. https://smallseotools.com/plagiarism-checker/. When I ran it through this plagiarism checker, it showed 47% of that passage was literally just the wikipedia article copied word for word. He also plagiarized the rest of the article. While I understand that this forum can't exactly enforce regulations against that, it's obnoxious as  to plagiarize an entire wikipedia article, make minor wording changes, and pretend it's your own work.

I make no claim as to all of this being my original work. I used the 1964 election as the basis for this scenario (as one can tell by looking at the county map), and the 1964 article as the template for the 2016 article. And what is your problem again? I know that you have a vendetta against my scenarios, as you've made plain, but why did you have to make this an issue here?

I'm annoyed that you present that page as your own work and do not mention the 1964 article anywhere. If I did that on an assignment at my university, I would be kicked out.

Cramer outdid himself, with a bonafide Akin moment in September.
