West Virginia went Republican very rarely after 1932 and the Depression. In ‘88 it had voted for Massachusetts Liberal Mile Dukakis. It’s turn to the right in 2000 was at least in part a deliberate effort by the Bush campaign to put new states in play. Texas, after all, had once also been reliably Democratic. Virginia, by contrast, was the first of the Southern States (or at least those in the Old Confederacy) to turn toward the GOP—notably the only(?) Southern State to support Ford—and stuck with the losing GOP tickets of the 1990’s.

Fun little game I played.

Step 1: Use the EVC calculator or 270towin map.

Step 2: Find a website that gives you a random US state. Put all 50 states in a random list generator. https://www.randomlists.com/random-us-states. This site will generate 50 states if you put the quantity at 50 instead of 6.

Step 3: Isolate two states at a time.

Step 4: The first random state will go Republican. The second state will go Democratic.

Step 5: Have fun with wacky results.

The above map:

Tom Sheridan (R-WI)/Malcolm Marquez(R-WA) - 295 EVs - 48.65%

Sherry Tomson (D-VA)/Marco Malcolmson (D-KY) - 243 EVs - 50.21%

Possible electoral votes in 2040, based off this.

Trump: 310
Clinton: 228

And for fun, the same scenario but California and Texas have their 2010 populations:

Trump: 308
Clinton: 230

[Mr. Smith]

Via the link cookiedamage cited came this:

Tipping Point: Kansas
Dems Needed to Win: Kansas, Minnesota

[CookieDamage]

I instead used a list randomizer (https://www.random.org/lists/) to calculate my map and here's the result, creating a super narrow Dem win.

Alexandra Mitchell (D-MS)/Michael Scott (D-NH) 279 EVs - 49.32%

Mitch Alexander (R-GA)/Scott Michaels (R-HI) 259 EVs - 49.01%

Hopping on the randomizer train

Gov. Daniella Cortez (R-CA)/Sen. Mitch Ryker (R-MN) - 331 EVs

Sen. Corey Daniels (D-GA)/Sen. Riley Mitchell (D-MI) - 207 EVs

What year is this set in?

[DFL]

Kate Vasquez-Smith (D-UT)/Sawyer White (D-SC) - 292EVs
Mike "Diamond" DiMaggio (R-NJ)/Chester Chang (R-WA) - 243EVs

Randomized percentages as well, weighting them with 50% most likely, 90% almost impossible.

Since we're doing totally random maps...

Since we're doing totally random maps...

Why does it look like there is actually some logic to how that map was created beyond randomness?

There really wasn't, I just colored states at random.

Also, can anyone here guess what this map shows?

Since we're doing totally random maps...

Alabama Senator Doug Jones/Utah Governor Jim Matheson (D)

It's not just a random map.

That's probably the most sensical scenario you could come up with for this map.

This looks like it could be I viable election in pre great depression america... if new hampshire and vermont are flipped.

The first map could be plausible in the future.
