I'm doin' something like what Badgate did here:

Former Vice President John Hoynes - 14 states; 129 electoral votes
Vice President Robert Russell - 24 states; 195 electoral votes
Congressman Matthew Santos - 12 states + D.C.; 214 electoral votes

So here's my version... Ladies and Gentlemen, BEHOLD THE 2018 REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES!!!:

For January:

Former Governor Bob McDonnell - 1 State (so far); 6 electorals
Secretary of Education Luis Fortuno - 2 States (so far); 12 electorals
Senator Rand Paul
Senator Ted Cruz
Secretary of Treasury Mitt Romney
Former Governor Bobby Jindal
Governor Chris Christie
Senator Marco Rubio

In February:

Secretary of Education Luis Fortuno - 3 States (so far); 18 electorals
Former Governor Bob McDonnell - 2 States (so far); 13 electorals
Senator Rand Paul - 1 State (so far); 11 electorals
Former Governor Bobby Jindal - 1 State (so far); 15 electorals
Senator Ted Cruz
Governor Chris Christie
Secretary of Treasury Mitt Romney
Senator Marco Rubio

In March:

Secretary of Education Luis Fortuno - 8 States (so far); 69 electorals
Senator Rand Paul - 7 States (so far); 59 electorals
Former Governor Bob McDonnell - 6 States (so far); 46 electorals
Former Governor Bobby Jindal - 1 State; 15 electorals
Senator Ted Cruz
Governor Chris Christie
Secretary of Treasury Mitt Romney
Senator Marco Rubio

April-July:

Secretary of Education Luis Fortuno - 17 states (so far); 180 electorals
Senator Rand Paul - 14 States (so far); 191 electorals
Former Governor Bob McDonnell - 11 States (so far); 82 electorals
Former Governor Bobby Jindal 1 State; 15 electorals
Senator Ted Cruz
Secretary of Treasury Mitt Romney
Senator Marco Rubio

Senator Rand Paul - 18 States (so far); 207 electorals
Secretary of Education Luis Fortuno - 17 States (so far); 186 electorals
Former Governor Bob McDonnell - 15 States (so far); 130 electorals
Former Governor Bobby Jindal
Senator Ted Cruz
Secretary of Treasury Mitt Romney
Senator Marco Rubio

RNC Convention: First Ballot:

Senator Rand Paul - 17 States; 207 electorals
Secretary of Education Luis Fortuno - 15 States; 201 electorals
Former Governor Bob McDonnell - 11 States; 130 electorals

RNC Convention: Second Ballot:

Senator Rand Paul - 27 states; 269 electorals
Secretary of Education Luis Fortuno - 23 states; 269 electorals
Former Governor Bob McDonnell

(a lot of delegates voted for Paul or Fortuno because they chose him over McDonnell, but because McDonnell decided to end his campaign, they all voted with their hearts)

President Gregg makes speech asking Rand Paul to put politics aside and to instead go behind Fortuno....

RNC Convention: Fourth Ballot:

FORTUNO NOMINATED FOR PRESIDENT!

FORTUNO SELECTS MARTINEZ AS VEEP!

And that's how Fortuno was nominated on the fourth ballot when he lost the last three...

[Enderman]

Secretary of State Mitt Romney

Ah, yes, with all his foreign policy experience, Romney would be great for this job! It's too bad he doesn't have any business experience that he likes to talk about, so he couldn't be nominated as Secretary of Treasury or Commerce in a Republican administration.

Fixed.

[Enderman]

This map has to do with place names.

Every other state via alphabetical order is colored red...

[Enderman]

Gov. Franklin Malcolm "Frank" Houston R-OK/Sen. Nicholas Kauver "Nick" Garret R-VA 271 EVS 49.67%
Gov. Charles "Charlie" Crist D-FL/Gov. Jefferson Randall "Jeff" Knox D-KY 267 EVS 47.21%
Rep. Emilia "Emma" Eckeman D-WI/Dr. Joseph "Joe" Lizzick I-CO 0 EVS 2.11%
Fmr. Sen. Randolf "Rand" Trackton R-CA/Judg. Matthew "Matt" Perry I-NH 0 EVS .81

[Enderman]

2020
Sen. Gene Taylor (D-MS)/Gov. Kathleen Kane (D-PA)
Fmr. Gov. John Kasich (R-OH)/Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)

Perhaps???

Good idea.

Could Ron Swanson (L-IN) be added too?

[Enderman]

Whoa, switching between forums continues to mess me up with party colors. Must remind myself every day that red means Dem on Atlas...

Same here, but vice/versa

[Enderman]

2012 (Rick Perry wins Republican nomination):

President Barack Obama (D-IL)/Senator Joe Biden (D-DE): 387 Electoral Votes (53.56%)
Governor Rick Perry (R-TX)/Congressman Paul Ryan (R-WI): 151 Electoral Votes (44.44%)
Other (Libertarian, Green, etc.): 0 Electoral Votes (2%)

I feel that's a bit generous to Ricky.

Does this actually represent something, or is it just random colors?

No, actually. At first I was trying to see how 90 percent colors look like while bordering each other. So I started with the West Coast and it went all Southeast from there. Literally.

I was quite pleasantly surprised about fitting all of the colors on there. Anyways this actually inspires me to do a Warren vs Cruz vs Huntsman map. Hmm...

To the map board!
