Go to the map and then go back to the question.

Interesting enough the original site has been updated with a new 2020 scenario.
Thanks.

Some weird things happened when you played the game yesterday. States would always switch around. (When you click on where Ohio should be it might actually have the stats of Illinois, go to the map again and it might have the stats of Colorado and so on) When you went to a state in place of the state name it'll be a random word. (You have chosen to visit door -- is this correct?) Also, Hawaii's shape took the form of a crewmate/impostor from Among Us.
Yeah that was an April Fool's prank. It wasn't funny in my view because I really wanted to play 1956 Eisenhower that day. It's back to normal now fortunately.

2022 PA senate mod out. You can only play as Oz right now.
I hope there are a lot more statewide mods like this. One that I'd like is 2013 VA Governor.

I've been trying to run up the score as Bush on normal and get over 500 electoral votes. It turns out that the key state is Massachusetts:



Vice President George Bush (R-TX)/Senator Bob Dole (R-KS): 502 electoral votes/50,547,546 votes (55.2%)

Governor Michael Dukakis (D-MA)/Senator Lloyd Bentsen (D-TX): 36 electoral votes/40,223,429 votes (43.9%)

1952 I got Eisenhower below 270 by picking Humphrey as my vp. the end screen had this link which I think is a George Wallace vp? https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YHHnFY5aogEoXQj1IauTyrGvgApj6aStnly64t9AMMQ/edit
Yeah, the subreddit got very hung up on George Wallace a while ago and they haven't fully recovered hence the high number of Wallace mods.

did really well as Hayes/Bruce, y'all should try it on cakewalk and see how many southern states you can flip
And then see if you can win every state except Iowa the next time you play

Weird campaign trail result.



Hillary Clinton: 351 E.V./50.2%
Donald Trump: 187 E.V./44%
Was McCaskill the running mate?

If they ever do a remake of the Oz vs. Fetterman mod, they'll have to have a question about Crudité.
