Any past matchup in 2016

[bagelman]

Specifically interested in Bryan vs. McKinley in 2016.

[impactreps]

McKinley/Hobart (R) - 274
Bryan/Sewall (D) - 264

It would be an interesting matchup. It's not a perfect comparison, but I see Bryan's populism fitting well with Trump's base of support and McKinley's industrialism/gold standard policies a reflection of his elite support, which fits better with Clinton.

[Mr. Smith]

Bryan wins by a weird coalitions of staunch progressives and the religious right that are still open to not going R at any and every point. 

[Kingpoleon]

272: Thomas Dewey/Earl Warren - 40.7%
257: Harry Truman/Alben Barkley - 37.4%
9: Storm Thurmond/Fielding L. Wright - 8.1%
Others - 3.8%

[libertpaulian]

Both Reagan elections

Reagan, Carter, and Mondale are the same ages today that they were in 1980 and 1984

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

So I didn't put too much though into this one, sorta just felt right as I went through the states. Thought I would have Reagan winning in the end, but Carter eked it out. Feel free to disagree since I'm not even 100% on this.

Pres. Jimmy Carter [D-GA] / VP Walter Mondale [D-MN] – 296 EV's
Fmr. Gov. Ronald Reagan [R-CA] / Fmr. Amb. George H. W. Bush [R-TX] – 242 EV's

[OSR stands with Israel]

Ill do 1896 and 1980(The economic situation is what it was then , and with a hostage crises, only difference is there is no USSR) and wont adjust percentages in each state.

1896:

McKinley 270  49.6%
Bryan 268       50.1%


1980:

Reagan 392 58%
Carter 146   41%

Carter only wins Georgia and West Virginia cause I dont think its possible for Carter to lose either of those states


Now 1912(there is not going to be light shade on here since i wont adjust for percentage )

Taft 252   35.3%
Wilson 168  33.3%
Teddy Roosevelt 118 30.9%

[Medal506]

Romney/Ryan: 425 (56%)
Obama/Biden: 115 (42%)

[Mr. Smith]

Smith/Robinson
Hoover/Curtis


Smith's too good at debates and throwing around catchphrases...while Hoover has none of that. Catholicism or no is no longer an issue.

[Goldwater]

George Washington (I-VA) - 538 EVs

[DPKdebator]

Al Gore - 278 EV
George Bush - 260 EV
