Ross Perot does not drop out of the race in July. Everything else stays the same. How would this election turn out? You pick the VPs. Discuss, with maps. List both the PV and the EV.

Perot wins. polls showed him even or ahead of both clinton and bush.

The polls could have changed, though.

If he wasn't in the race before he reentered, how did he go from 7 to 19?

Immediately after he reenetered the race, he was polling at 7%. After the debates, he was polling at about 20% and won 19% of the EV on Election Day.

Yes. Polls essentially show what % of the popular vote a candidate is likely to win if the election was held today.

I know my question was did the media put Perot in the race even after he dropped out?

No. They didn't.
