Some things change, others stay the same.

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

Texford is a great name.

Neat! could we see a map?

Sure! Here it is:


I made this a while ago, so I don't fully remember the rationale for which states McCain won. But it made sense at the time. If I recall though he did well with over 65s (Florida, and to some extent Arizona), suburban voters (strong support in NOVA, Atlanta Suburbs, and St. Louis/Kansas City areas), moderates (New Hampshire) and benefitted from suppressed  turnout among social conservatives, and poor GOP numbers among Mormons, (Utah).It was something like that, anyway.

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

North Carolina voting for Lee is based as hell.

What program do you use for the maps? I can never get them to look right. Currently on MS Paint.

[blackentheborg]

I 100% endorse this.

[Ferguson97]

I 100% endorse this.

She's better than McCain and Paul, I guess...

I use Inkscape for Wikipedia style maps. You can download it for free (https://inkscape.org/) and it allows you to edit .svg maps, which is mostly what Wikipedia uses. It's not that difficult to figure it out, either.

[Left Wing]

2006 Presidential election. The backstory is that Dems take congress in 2002 and they decide to make it so the president has to be re-elected every two years.

This would require a constitutional amendment. Dems won 67 seats in the Senate?

Some Rs join in as well. Dems win more seats because of a less drastic 9/11 approval bump for Bush

[Former President tack50]

Here is one I made. Basically what if we elected our PM with the same system the US uses for the president. For the electoral college simulation I think I just took some simulation of "what if we elected MPs by region" and then added 2 to each region (though I think I messed it up and should really be 388 EVs in total). This is based off November 2019



For fun, here are some other elections:

2016:
Rajoy / Santamaría: 46%, 236 EVs
Iglesias /  Garzón: 44%, 152 EVs
Tardá / Otegi:: 7%, 0 EVs

2012:
Rajoy /  Santamaría: 49%, 303 EVs
Rubalcaba /. Bono: 36%, 13 EVs
Duran i Lleida /  Erkoreka: 8%, 72 EVs

2008:
Zapatero /  Chacón: 48%, 199 EVs
Aguirre / Oreja: 41%, 189 EVs
Duran i Lleida /  Erkoreka: 7%, 0 EVs

You can really see how vote distribution really hurts the left in here, barely eking out a win in 2008 under a 7 point PV win; as well as winning the PV but losing the election in 2020. If curious, the "tipping point state" is Andalucia at Casado+1.5 (Sanchez wins 212-176-19 by flipping Catalonia from the nationalists and Andalucia)

[Huey Long is a Republican]

This is for a potential TL I'll consider making around the same PODs for the Keys to the White House game I'll get started on later today. Thougts?

Let me guess: Huey Long runs as a third-party candidate?
