Which of this states are realistically (read: barring a massive landslide) out of reach for one of the candidates? Which are at least somewhat competitive?

Georgia, Indiana, Maine, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Oregon, Utah. The others would be at least somewhat competitive in an even election.

Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin for the GOP

Indiana, Missouri and Utah for the Dems

Dems have a legitimate shot at Arizona and Georgia

So Republicans got crushed in NH in 2012 and EVEN IN 2014 and Atlas still considers the state to be a pure tossup or maybe even lean R?

I don't know of anyone who actually thinks NH is Lean R. I think the consensus is that Hillary is favored in NH, but that it's not completely safe for her. As most of us are aware, you disagree. Wink

National margin in 2012: D+3.86
NH margin in 2012: D+5.58

Absolutely crushed. Absolutely.

Interesting how North Carolina currently ties with Ohio as the state with the fewest votes. I would've thought more people would consider it out of reach for Clinton.

EDIT: Of course, as soon as I say North Carolina has no votes, someone votes for it. Figures.

Whoops, didn't mean to vote Arizona or Georgia.

Michigan, Minnesota, Oregon, Maine.

Utah is a special case. It's not remotely competitive normally, but in this election I'm not really sure.
