2016: The Political Revolution



Senator Bernard Sanders (D-VT) / Congresswoman Donna Edwards (D-MD) 303

Senator Joe Machin (R-WV) / Former Governor Lincoln Chafee (R-RI) 235

With a strong candidate that had the party in lockstep, it was never really in doubt that Sanders came out on top. Manchin exceeded pundit expectations, taking North Carolina thanks to overpreforming in Appalachia, easily winning FL and coming very close in OH. But it wasn't enough.

2020: The Political Revolution continued



President Bernard Sanders (D-VT) / Vice President Donna Edwards (D-MD) 328

Governor Andrew Cuomo (R-NY) / Senator Ben McAdams (R-UT) 210

The 2020 election was a hard fought affair. Republican Governor Andrew Cuomo was one of the best challengers to Sanders the GOP hoped for. His VP selection wasn't an easy choice, with Pete Buttigieg seen as a top choice, but Cuomo chose to shore up his conservative base instead. McAdams became the second Mormon to be placed on a Presidential Ticket.

Republicans were confident about this election, especially in light of the COVID pandemic. Republicans claimed more technocratic and less "anti-business" policies would help stop the pandemic. Cuomo touted a national mask mandate. Former President Barack Obama was officially neutral but essentially opposed his own party in this election.

In the end however it was a big disappointment for the GOP. All that money to lose electoral votes, gaining only Ohio due to the popularity of their Republican governor and his endorsement of Cuomo. Many here on Atlas believe that if the GOP had attacked Sanders from the other direction regarding masks and lockdowns, they might have had a better chance. A scary thought.

2024: Battle of the Buckeyes



Senator Tim Ryan (R-OH) / Senator Kyrsten Sinema (R-AZ) Won

Congresswoman Nina Turner (D-OH) / Congresswoman Illhan Omar (D-MN) Lost

A pair of congresswomen lose to a pair of Senators. Donna Edwards had been defeated in the primaries by Turner, who ran a more culturally left wing campaign in their bid to continue the political revolution. Instead the Republicans came back. Ryan was skilled in winning the votes of traditional Democrats, while the actual Democratic ticket talked more about their own representation of women of color (not a bad thing) rather than trying to win votes (more important).

Pete Buttigieg (R-IN), the runner up in the GOP primaries, remains a rising star in the party and has been guaranteed a prominent spot in the Ryan administration. On the other side, New York Senator Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez remains the leader of the Democrats in Congress and is already the frontrunner for the 2028 nomination. Whether she enters the race in 4 years remains to be seen.

I've been toying with the idea of making Congressional districts the size of English parliamentary constituencies for a while now so here's Alabama's congressional elections in 2020.



The only flip from 2018 (Auburn) flipped back to Republican. Northport & Pickens (to the west of Tuscaloosa) had a competitive election but the democrat won re-election by a few points.

ACCK the top one uses mainstream media colors inverted rather than normal atlas colors

But yea that's cool. I'm probably going to be using mainstream media colors because of the differences in the shades of red and blue that correspond to mainstream media.

2028 4 Way race (Biden wins reelection against Pence/Noem Ticket by a similar EC margin but loses House in 2022 and Senate in 2024. Dies two years into his second term, Dems retake the House in 2026. Centrist and Progressive Dems officially split over policy disputes and Progressives thinking Centrists haven't done enough. The MAGAts decide to also split off from the Republican party and adapt a much more openly fascist platform (limiting all types of immigration, anti-gay marriage, etc.) and run as a fourth party).

There is no world in which Iowa and Illinois vote more “law and order” than Missouri. There is no world in which Colorado and Oregon vote “law and order,” ever.

Somewhat yes. The president and main character of the book here, a moderate Democrat, is a billionaire businessman who was elected vice president in 2012 who assumed the presidency in August 2014. The previous president, an African American woman, resigned after a corruption scandal, after she bribed a Republican congressman for his vote. 2012 was a 269-269 tie between her and Vice President Mitt Romney, who served under John McCain for two terms, who himself unseated Al Gore in 2004.

The Republican challenger of 2016 is the sitting governor of Ohio, who belongs to the conservative evangelical wing of the party. Her running mate is a South Carolina senator, while the incumbent vice president is a former California senator in her mid 40s. Although the president has several controversies with affairs and a divorce (which is the main story of the novel), he ultimately wins comfortably due to his economic credentials, massive cash advantage and the challenger's social conservatism being out of step with most Americans.

I plan to write a continuation at some point, that includes the 2020 election, where major swings happen in a contest between the above vice president and a Trumpist candidate (Democrats losing ground in the Midwest, but making inroads in the Sunbelt).
