With a PV between 4 and 5% and otherwise no other context. How do you react and what do you think happened? Who was the Dem nominee?

Probably that Donald Trump’s impeachment resulted in Elizabeth Warren over performing  (I had Elizabeth Warren as the Democratic nominee at the time).

I'd be fairly convinced Stacy Abrams was the VP candidate, that's for sure.

Without any other hindsight, I'd have seen that map and guessed it was a fairly stable race with Sanders as the nominee. I'd have bet the suburbs swung slightly less than they actually did but would also have expected a slightly better Democratic performance in the exurban and rural rust belt along with urban core areas nationally.

Yeah, I would probably have guessed a Biden/Abrams ticket if I was presented that map a year ago.

I would guess a Biden/Abrams ticket, with Dems winning Senate seats in CO, AZ, ME, and the special election in GA, while losing AL.  I’d be surprised to see GA go blue while FL and NC go red, which would lead me to guess Abrams as the VP.  Overall, the results would fall within my range of expectations and I’d be generally satisfied.

I'd spend at least a few minutes gobsmacked that a bulletin board meme from 20 years ago is somehow still the cultural touchstone for time travel fantasies.

I don't think I necessarily would have thought Abrams was the VP. I never expected a non-Senator to be VP, and I've always felt like Georgia is trending D faster than its neighbors.

I might have actually guessed Sanders as the nominee, since his weakness among Cubans could cause him to lose Florida.

I would have guessed Harris is the nominee and focused hard on GA while being able to recapture some of the blue freiwal.

Warren or Biden was the nominee. No idea who they picked for VP.

Titor is the immortal time traveler for Americans on the Internet, sorry about that H.G. Wells.
