After Barack Obama won the Democratic nomination in 2008, a Gallup Poll showed that John McCain's support among Democrats calling themselves "conservative" by party standards increased from 15 % to 26 %. In fact, 40 % of Clinton supporters described themselves as dissatisfied and 7 % described themselves as angry; 25 % said they would support McCain in the general election.

What if McCain actually did win that portion of Clinton supporters (25 %) on Election Day? How would the Electoral College results look like?
