Clinton wins the popular vote 49-46, but...



Trump: 273
Clinton: 265

Trump carries Pennsylvania by under 1,000 votes, or 0.01%.

I know how this will turn out (maybe the 4-4 court will leave it to the states)
... Promptly moving to Canada to avoid Iraq, Iran, and Chinese Wars.

Would be even more infuriated at the electoral college, and would point out the hypocrisy of Trump declaring victory, after his temper tantrum in 2012 where he called for revolution when it looked like Romney might win the PV while losing the EC.

That would require Trump to have an actual campaign strategy :/

But if that happened I would be getting some tickets; Spain and France seem nice.

1) Call out of work the next day (actually, I'll probably do this regardless)
2) Set up my Canadian online dating profile and hopefully find some nice Canadian man to marry, or at least convince one to have a sham marriage and get me into Trudeau's domain as a refugee
3) Play this song over and over on repeat: https://youtu.be/Ee_uujKuJMI
4) Get so drunk I black out

I'd prepare for riots and apply for grad school in Canada.

I'd write a letter to PM Trudeau, asking him to consider taking in Trump refugees.

New Zealand may be a bit cold this time of year, but come November... Well, it will be slightly warmer, at least. A nice out of the way country that hopefully will get ignored. Turnip's foreign policy will probably consist of moving pieces around on a Risk board, which (for once) thankfully omits New Zealand.

If this happens, the Clinton campaign should search for potentially faithless Republican electors.  5 would be needed.

I have this exact map in a Clinton+2 election (PA is the tipping-point state for me, as well). Let's hope it doesn't come down to that.

Other states with smaller than 3-point margins in a Clinton+2 election, in my view, include:
FL ( R+1.4 )
IA ( D+1.8 )
MN ( D+2.1 )
NH ( D+2.3 )
OH ( R+2.5 )
VA ( D+2.2 )
