My projection for the 2012 election, based on the changes in the trends between 2004 and 2008:

Why not Ohio? It went for Obama by 4% didn't it?

I'm using trend margin, which is swing margin adjusted for how the rest of the country went. In 2004, Ohio's trend was 4.38% Dem, but in 2008, it was 3.82% GOP. When I subtracted the difference and added the new trend margin to the 2008 results, Ohio goes GOP. For 2016, I just doubled the difference and added the new new trend margin to the projected 2012 results.

You may need to adjust Mass and Arizona for the homestate effect.

I realize that. However, I intend for these maps to be taken with at least a grain of salt.

How each state has voted since 1992.

Dark Blue=Republican all 5 times
Medium Blue=Republican 4/5 times
Light Blue=Republican 3/5 times
Light Red=Democrat 3/5 times
Medium Red=Democrat 4/5 times
Dark Red=Democrat all 5 times

Seeing that map cracked me up! Anyway, my response: a fantasy election with George Bush the Democrat and John Kerry the Republican.

This one should be easy, but note that the map will change very soon.

These ones should also be easy. As with the previous map, these will also change soon.

D: 294, R: 244

The ideal Democratic "Whistling Past Dixie" map - a slight message-tweak to give the Democrats a libertarian bent and dropping asinine issues like 'gun control' would be enough to give us this, or something very similar, in a close election.

I still can't believe he didn't get 50% in 96. How pathetic is that? Especially when you consider the opposition...

To be fair, I've always thought that Perot took more voters from Clinton in both those elections than either Bush or Dole. He'd almost certainly have broken 50% in both of them had Perot not run.
