Let's say trends continue as is. Atlanta and NoVa make Georgia and Virginia blue. At the same time, the Republican Party becomes the party of libertarianism as a new generation of Paulites comes to power. What would an electoral map look like with that type of candidate, one who is libertarian in nature (ie soft on immigration, social issues), vs. a Democrat that is part of the party that evolved to be more far-left, canceling out the supposed revived Solid South?

If both sides cave to where their "emerging" momentum seems to be coming from (libertarianism which downplays social issues for the GOP and true economic populism in the style of Elizabeth Warren for the Dems), I could see this as a base map in a few decades:



Dark Color = Solid for that party
Light Color = Usually sides with that party but could flip with the right candidate/climate
Gray = Tossup

Make Nevada blue. It's a libertarian state
