2016 under my leftist America scenario

This is serious AWESOMENESS right here. Cool how you use the French system here.

2016 under my leftist America scenario

If only this were real.  Are there party descriptions anywhere?

Socialist is a catch-all party of the left, think 70s/80s Bernie for the “median”. Was a little further left in the past.

Live Free or Die is libertarian with a heavy focus on conspiracy theories. Broad coalition of support from militia members to keyboard warriors.

Solidarity is mostly made up of who would be “weird” Democrats (and a few Republicans) irl. Traficant’s ideology is a good benchmark. More socially conservative than most other parties but also fairly big tent.

National Democratic is the closest thing to a generic Democratic Party. It formed from the New Democratic and National Liberal parties which provided more moderate alternatives to
the ruling Progressive Labor Party (which gradually lost a lot of its influence and endorsed Sanders in this election).

The Conservatives are just a rump Republican Party which generally survived at about 10% after the Vito Marcantonio presidency but bled a lot of support to Jones this time around.

Communists are pretty self-explanatory.

US Power is alt right which hurts its chances for similar reasons that (until recently) the Spanish/Portuguese far right never really rose up. Essentially this whole timeline takes place after a successful fascist coup during the Great Depression which doesn’t last long but leaves a lasting impact on society.

True Left is the left wing equivalent of Live Free or Die but doesn’t do as well.

Open Government is also pretty self-explanatory, supporting more transparency and less corruption. Fairly technocratic.

Women’s Equality is just what it sounds like. Progressive with a focus on social issues and gender equality.

American Delta is the same as its real life equivalent. Same with Libertarian.

The U.S. as the U.K.

[LabourJersey]

The U.S. as the U.K.

This is great, but wouldn't California First get a lot more votes than 4 million if it wins 46 seats in CA?

[Huey Long is a Republican]

feel free to make of this timeline what you will and you can even feel free to make your own timeline from these if you'd like. I'll just need to finish the cabinets/shadow cabinets first and then I'll send everything to you if you want to make this a TL.

Why does Ed Miliband continue to run forever?

[Huey Long is a Republican]

Why does Ed Miliband continue to run forever?

He constantly has the belief of it's his time and he's constantly pushed by some of the lesser left wingers in the party, though he has said that 2019 is his last try.

Considering the most people don't even run twice in Labour, that's hardly realistic but its your TL so shoot

Image is literally just a picture of me. No source needed for that, I'd assume. Also the name is obviously fake, not telling y'all that rn

[GM Team Member and Senator WB]

I just realized I messed up the election years, I blame my scatterbrained-ness today

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

[Big Boy Beto]

Partially based on my new timeline but is in no way the final result

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

Yeah, Jr.'s running mate is gonna be Dan Bishop, and AOC's gonna win the popular vote by 5!

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

I'm scaring myself:

[Big Boy Beto]

I'm scaring myself:

You're a bit obsessed with this guy. Bet you don't have as many bodypillows of him as I do though

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

You're a bit obsessed with this guy. Bet you don't have as many bodypillows of him as I do though

To be fair, if a local politician was perhaps most infamous for discriminating against you, you'd be obsessed with them too.

Following the signing of the Treaty of Madrid that ended the Southern War of Independence on May 17th, 1865, President Breckenridge immediately got on to work as a peacetime President, appointing Commander of the Mississippi State Guard (Formerly General of the Army of Southern Alabama) Jefferson Davis as his Secretary of War, Commander of the Arkansas State Guard (Formerly General of the Army of Northern Virginia) Patrick Cleburne as his Secretary of Defense, and Commander of the Virginia State Guard and War Time Adviser Robert E. Lee as Secretary of State.

Following the Treaty's signing, a new amendment was pushed, allowing for Confederates to serve two 6 year terms as President. President Breckenridge announced his intentions in Early 1867 and no one ran against him out of respect. He won all 141 Electoral Votes and all of the Popular Vote, being the only Confederate President/Presidential Candidate to do so. Under his Tenure, the Traditionalist Party (Founded : 1870) and the Readjustment Party (Founded : 1871) would emerge to disagreements within the Confederate Government. Secretary Cleburne would be the Chair of the Readjustment Party until his Presidential Victory in 1887 while Virginia Governor James Longstreet would serve as Chair of the Traditionalist Party until his election as President in 1873. He would be followed by Louisiana Senator P.G.T Beauregard.

Should I make infoboxes for the 1864 US Presidential Election and do a Mini-TL based on the political happenings of the United and Confederate States? The Civil War and everything non political will be posted here : http://alternate-timelines.proboards.com/
