What would the electoral map look like here?

This looks like OTL but with Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and probably Florida flipped for Her.

(Also, as per the map, Oregon seems to be messed up. Why would Marion flip before Clackamas?)

Probably colored the wrong county.

And Klobuchar would win Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan comfortably but not like Obama did, while she would win Iowa and PA by a hair, while Trump wins Ohio, NC, and Georgia by a hair. Arizona is closer due to heinrich but still gop. Klobuchar wins Florida.

Not sure why Clay County (SD) wouldn’t vote for Klobuchar. It’s a university county and probably the most liberal place in the state.

Thanks, noted. Is there any way it could go Republican, for instance, due to low turnout? Is it a majority white school?

Wait a sec, Tarrant County flips before Maricopa? Texas must have been really close.

Yeah, this map has some problems. Texas appears to be within low single digits despite the fact that Klobuchar is winning a narrow victory nationally.

Why's that an issue? Both Tarrant County and Maricopa County were both won by similar margins, maybe something like 51-49 for both Klobuchar and Trump.

EDIT: Looks like Maricopa was closer than Tarrant, so I've edited my map and now have Tarrant AND Maricopa voting Dem by narrow margins.

How much would a Dem need to win Maricopa in order to flip AZ?

By two percent or so. Less if Yuma County flips, too.

Well in that case I'll have her flip AZ.

You also have Summit OH voting for Trump against a midwesterner. Summit County is safe D as long as Ohio is <55% R. Safe D. Not Lean D. Not Likely D. Safe D. And I highly doubt that Wood County voting Democratic counts as <55% R.

Thanks, fixed.

How do you guys calculate posts like 5% swing to Nixon, 10% swing to Hillary? Plus, more importantly, how do y'all put that into map form/how do you know what counties to flip? Thanks, since I'd like to make some of these types of maps on my own.

just divide the percentage by two, add half of it to one candidate and talk half from another. For example, let’s say you want to do a 5% swing to Walter Mondale. What you would do is add 2.5% to Mondale and take 2.5% from Reagan.

Thanks! Do you guesstimate which counties go to whom? Or do you do it by state and use past elections as references? So if I did a ~% swing to Hillary and it made her win Pennsylvania, I'll just flip the most likely counties that would have enabled a win?

I do it by state using previous elections. You would flip whatever country margins fall into the amount ur swinging to

Thanks!
