Sigh. Looks like Atlas fell into the battleground South Carolina trap again. I remember seeing threads like this in 2016 too. South Carolina seems to be one of those states that Atlas Democrats have a weird obsession with winning despite it being very Republican. The only states Atlas is even more obsessed with are Iowa, Wyoming, and West Virginia.
I think a lot of people just like the idea of an east coast sweep because it looks cool on a map or something. Kinda like the bizarre idea of Illinois voting Republican some day (Midwest sweep!)
I don't think I'll live to see the day IL votes to the right of SC though.
This map would be beautiful:
As would this map:
