Thank you, Peebs. I had adjusted the EVs in the original post, but I was unsure my math was correct.

If the EVC had purple, my masterpiece would have been truly complete. Alas, this won't happen anytime soon. It's interesting, though, that although orange isn't available in the calculator you can get it by messing with the url.

Do not fear! Simply access the map URL and replace all of the beginning text up to "AL" with the following:

Code:
https://uselectionatlas.org/TOOLS/genusmap.php?type=mock&year=2016&off=0&ev_c=0&ev_p=0&pty=2&

You will (a) be able to access Puerto Rico and (b) be able to use colors such as purple and tan. The color codes are as follows:

0 - Gray
1 - Red
2 - Blue
3 - Green
4 - Yellow
5 - Orange
6 - Purple
7 - Tan
8 - Purplish gray
9 - Purple again (same as 6)
10 - Different shade of tan
11 and everything above - Purple again (same as 6 and 9)
Something that is not a number - White

In order to access Puerto Rico, add this code at the end of your url (fill in blanks with numbers):

Code:
&PR=_;_;_

Here is a map with Maine in purple and Puerto Rico in tan:

Seconded. It's a shame that people use MS Paint for multiple colors when they can just screw with the EVC.

EDIT: I will re-post this in the advanced mapmaking thread, as it is conspicuously absent.

The moderate President Pataki of the Liberal party defeats the Populist candidate in his bid for reelection. However NJ clearly trended towards the Pops in a Lib year.

Note that there is one state of Dakota in this obviously very different America, with the majority of the population (by a 4-1 margin) living in the northern half of the state. The southern half, and neighboring Wyoming, is dominated by Native Americans.

2012 election with the old "No representative should serve more than 30,000" rule. Also included is 127-EV Puerto Rico. (And for those who can't tell, Connecticut has 122 EVs, Rhode Island has 38, and New Jersey has 296.)

All 10,551 votes in the Electoral College
5,276 to win
President Barack Obama (D-IL) / Vice President Joe Biden (D-DE) - 51.2%/6,749/27+DC
Former Governor Mitt Romney (R-MA) / Representative Paul Ryan (R-WI) - 47.3%/3,802/24

Note that there is one state of Dakota in this obviously very different America, with the majority of the population (by a 4-1 margin) living in the northern half of the state. The southern half, and neighboring Wyoming, is dominated by Native Americans.



However Pataki's successor, Marcus Lucas , was a corrupt administrator who failed to stem the tide of money that was leaving New York City, traditionally America's second most prosperous city behind Cleveland (Cleveland and other Ohio cities being far and away more successful in this world than in the real world, as evidenced by Ohio's 500 lb. gorilla status in the house). Lucas was popular enough in his party because of his agricultural reforms to make the race competitive (and also promising to be a fourth term of the still popular President Helga Pataki) but Populist candidate Benedict Lazlo carried the election on a tide of change.

Lazlo actually won Ohio by a larger margin than New York, because of the New Zion party that had set itself in the region. This party didn't win any states because of their extreme positions on many foreign policy and social issues. This party attracted liberals* on their FP stances and hard line populists on social issues.

*members of the liberal party, not our world's liberals. Our world's liberals would consider them to be dangerous provocateurs.

If current [sic] trends continue,

Incredibly unrealistic, although 70 EV California would be kind of fun.

Worst part of that map is Arizona having more EVs than New York, and NY being dwarfed by FL. What happened to NYC and how the heck would Arizonans get their water?!

I think Cali's going to start losing EVs before 2050.

The EV changes in the Sabato thing were 1960-2010, so this is 2010-1960. Let's pretend that NYC sunk into the ocean, because global warming, and Arizonans are using giant solar stills of some kind to suck moisture out of the air.

I agree about Cali. If the drought keeps up, we could start losing much sooner.
