[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

These are the primaries for both parties. Guess the Candidates:

What year is this? If it's 2020, these are my guesses
GOP: Trump (gold), Rubio (blue), Abbott (green), Kasich (yellow), and I really have no clue who the pink could be

Dem: Bernie or Warren (green), Kander (yellow), and Merkley (pink)

it's in 2016

Then are the Dems Liz Warren (green), Hillary (pink) and Joe Biden (yellow)?

Sanders is green. In the GOP, Rubio is blue, Cruz is green, Kasich is yellow, Trump is pink. Gold is a candidate most wouldn't expect

[You don't see any blue avatars now]

Someone from Tennessee, probably. You just opened a Bill Haslam TL, so there's my guess.

What-If: Eisenhower Dies During 2nd Term


1960: Incumbency Advantage

77 EV: Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-MA)/Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson (D-TX) - 46.12%
460 EV: Pres. Richard Nixon (R-CA)/Vice Pres. Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. (R-MA) - 53.32%


1964: Time for a Change

318 EV: Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D-MN)/Sen. George Smathers (D-FL) - 45.38%
181 EV: Gov. Nelson Rockefeller (R-NY)/Gov. George Romney (R-MI) - 44.09%
39 EV: Gov. George Wallace (I-AL)/Gen. Curtis LeMay (I-CA) - 10.22%


1968: The Realignment

386 EV: Pres. Hubert Humphrey (D-MN)/Vice Pres. George Smathers (D-FL) - 51.71%
152 EV: Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-AZ)/Rep. Gerald Ford (R-MI) - 48.02%

If the Vice President was elected in the midterms:

1994

Dan Quayle – 308
Al Gore – 230

Quayle re-elected.

1998

Bill Bradley – 278
Lamar Alexander – 260

Bradley barely beats out Alexander (with Gore 2000 + WV, AR)

2002

Dick Cheney – 349
Bill Bradley – 189

Cheney crushes Bradley's reelection bid.

2006

Joe Biden – 400
Dick Cheney – 138

Cheney's re-election try goes even worse than Bradley's, as Biden sweeps the floor with him.

2010

Rick Santorum – 298
Joe Biden – 240

2014

Rick Santorum – 269
Brian Schweitzer – 269

Republicans have a strong midterm, but somewhat undercut by Schweitzer's strength as a candidate (and Santorum's weakness). The newly Republican Senate does vote party line to re-elect Santorum.

Finally, I give you the Vice Presidential Partisanship Map for 2002-2014 (4 elections)

Also, as a bonus, the partisan leaning of each state based on the winners of the last 4 elections (note: Republicans won 3, though 1 was 269-269 and the Dem win had the largest margin)

Quayle would not have been elected in the first place.

Yellow: Would rather live in the most Libertarian county than the last

Green: Opposite of that

Gray: Neither/Not Enough Libertarians/No County data

[bagelman]

Red - Would rather live the county that swung towards Clinton. She of course won nicer areas, which is frankly a bad thing.

Pink - Would rather live in the county that swung the least towards Trump

Blue - Would rather live in the county that swung the most towards Trump

2012: MCCONNELL LANDSLIDE!!!!!

In 2012, Mitch McConnell and John Cornyn run for President and win the entire thing against Obama and Biden:

Mitch McConnell (R-KY)/John Cornyn (R-TX): 538/100%
Barack Obama (D-IL)/Joe Biden (D-DE): 0/0%

(McConnell running for president is a gag I started in the 2012 Election Game that everyone finds good).

2020 Democratic Primary: Dark Horse Edition

Rep. Cheri Bustos (D-IL)

Gov. Tom Wolf (D-PA)

[bagelman]

With the Canadian and Mexican border counties made into two states. AK represents the northern border, which is Democratic because of Detroit, and ND represents the southern border. The non-border counties of ND were of course merged into SD.

[CookieDamage]

Used to RCP demographic calculator to make both parties receive about 50% of the white vote at 75% turnout. Used some liberties.
