I think we’re kidding ourselves if we say Moore could even win AR/OK/WY. Moore is the kind of candidate who could ONLY win in Alabama, and yet he still couldn’t win there. Total 50 state, 538 EV wipeout.
I find that very hard to believe.
There's no doubt Moore would be absolutely annihilated, but I think he still wins a few states, and even if he won zero states he'd still win at least 1 electoral vote because there's no way he loses NE-3.
Ah yes, I didn't think about NE-3. You may have a point about that. But the fact that we're even debating whether the man could maybe win 1 electoral vote due to a quirk of the system tells you all that you need to know about how DOA his candidacy would be.
Also, the reason I think he would be so particularly screwed is, again, I pretty much think his style ONLY appeals to ANYONE in Alabama, or at least the Deep South. So not even 100% sure he could pull NE-3. If this bible-thumping, gun-toting lunatic couldn't manage to force Alabama to look past his child-molesting and mall-banning record, it's hard to imagine what states he could do it to. We know even, say, West Virginia is to this day capable of voting for Democrats under less ripe circumstances. He would be absolutely FUBAR.
