Atlasia's political landscape has a mostly left-leaning atmosphere at the moment, but I'm wondering how the current "Major" parties would do.

Labor: Main center-left party, progressive, social liberal, social democratic. Current Chair is MB, but the Party's current face is President Pericles.
Federalist: Main center-right party. Quite big tent, with its roots in libertarianism. Recently merged with the right-wing Atlas Conservative Party. Party chair is the elder statesman NorthCarolinaYankee, the face of the conservative wing is Muaddib.
Peace: A more left-wing alternative to Labor. Although the two left-leaning parties frequently work together, recently the Federalists have run a Pax candidate at the top. Most recently with Siren/Muaddib in the upcoming election. Non-interventionist, environmentalist.
The rule of law and the arm of justice All Atlasia Anna Pacific Progressive Front: Permanent Revolution North America Atlasia Inc.: Harry Truman Doris Day Red China Johnnie Ray South Pacific Walter Winchell Joe DiMaggio Joe McCarthy Richard Nixon Studebaker television North Korea South Korea Marilyn Monroe Rosenbergs H-bomb Sugar Ray Panmunjom Brando "The King and I" and "The Catcher in the Rye" Eisenhower vaccine England's got a new queen Marciano Liberace Santayana goodbye Joseph Stalin, Malenkov Nasser and Prokofiev Rockefeller Campanella Communist Bloc Roy Cohn Juan Peron Toscanini Dacron Dien Bien Phu falls "Rock Around the Clock" Einstein James Dean Brooklyn's got a winning team Davy Crockett Peter Pan Elvis Presley Disneyland Bardot Budapest Alabama Krushchev Princess Grace "Peyton Place" trouble in the Suez Little Rock Pasternak Mickey Mantle Kerouac Sputnik Chou En-Lai "Bridge on the River Kwai" Lebanon Charles de Gaulle California baseball Starkweather homicide children of thalidomide Buddy Holly "Ben Hur" space monkey Mafia Hula hoops Castro Edsel is a no-go U2 Syngman Rhee payola and Kennedy Chubby Checker "Psycho" Belgians in the Congo Hemingway Eichmann "Stranger in a Strange Land" Dylan Berlin Bay of Pigs invasion "Lawrence of Arabia" British Beatlemania Ole Miss John Glenn Liston beats Patterson Pope Paul Malcolm X British politician sex JFK blown away Birth control Ho Chi Minh Richard Nixon back again Moonshot Woodstock Watergate punk rock Begin Reagan Palestine terror on the airline Ayatollah's in Iran Russians in Afghanistan "Wheel of Fortune" Sally Ride heavy metal suicide Foreign debts homeless vets AIDS crack Bernie Goetz Hypodermics on the shores China's under martial law Rock and roller cola wars Most Glorious National Union for Social Democracy (Trotsky-Bidenist and Corporate Buddhist, Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games Path): Or more simply, the Law and Justice Party, is an absurdist satirical political party. Currently led by "incumbent president" HCP. Merged with the Mario Party soon after its creation, their self-described ideology is Trotsky-Bidenism-Buddhism-Mario Path.
Liberal: A mostly dead party, the LP is officially a centrist liberal party. It currently has the smallest membership for a major party, at 4 members.

So how would these 5 parties do in actual elections?

Probably should be moved to the actual Fantasyland board but anyways:



Senate PPT NC Yankee (F-NC) / Governor Muaddib (F-MS): 43%, 312 EVs
President Pericles (L-MN) / Governor JK Sestak (L-IL): 37%, 220 EVs
Fmr. Senator Siren (P-HI) / Representative Razze (P-FL): 13%, 7 EVs
Comedian HCP (LJP-NM) / Fmr. Governor Ted Bessell (LJP-CA): 5%, 3 EVs
Perennial candidate Poirot (Lib-VT) / Businessman Blairite (Lib-NY): 2%, 0 EVs

Poirot gets his best result in New York and his home state of Vermont.

Tack are you saying that I'm Governor of Mississippi running for VP in this scenario? As I'm the Speaker of the Chamber in game. So I'm guessing you've transposed Atlasians onto IRL with a "best fit". Oh and Tack you need to do more of that MB timeline Wink

Oh yeah vote splitting would be a big issue for the left here. Unless you have these elections in Maine. Otherwise it would just be a purely two-party contest of the Federalists and Labor.

I don't know about American elections, but British elections are perfect:
Labor = Labour
Federalist = Conservative
Peace = Green
Liberal = Liberal Democrats
Law and Justice = Monster Raving Loony

The results with the current platforms would be like the 2017 election but likely a bit better for Labor.

For fun, here is a hypothetical election, based off the popular vote results of the June 2020 election but with the state partisanship of real life:



President Pericles (Lab-MN)/ Governor JK Sestak (Lab-IL): 51%, 407 EVs
Fmr. Senator Siren (Pax-ID) / Speaker of the Southern Chamber of Delegates Muaddib (Fed-MS): 34%, 103 EVs
Comedian HCP (LJP-NM) / Regional Legislator Ted Besell (LJP-CA): 11%, 28 EVs

And this is with HCP taking almost exclusively from Labor Tongue (pretty sure almost all his votes transferred to Pericles in the 2nd round). Had I done the hypothetical 2nd round, Siren would only win 34 Electoral Votes (KY, WV, OK, ND, SD, ID, WY and the lone electoral vote from NE-03). Maybe if she got lucky with HCP transfers she'd also win AL, TN, AR and NE-At large, but they'd be very close.

President Pericles (Lab-MN)/ Governor JK Sestak (Lab-IL): 52.5% - 393 EV
Senator Jimmy7812 (DA-PA) / Fmr. Representative PSOL (Grn-AK) 25% - 92 EV
Fmr. governor Muaddib (Fed-MS) / Fmr. Representative fhtagn (Fed-VA): 22,5% - 53 EV

Of course hypothetical. Our focus is august!

If Alaska was drawn to the right scale there would actually be a lot of yellow on that map.

For those interested, I actually made a sequel of sorts to this map in the Fantasyland board, though now based off even swings instead of guesses

Best part tbh is Adam Griffin going from narrowly losing to winning 534-4 lol (losing only WY and NE-03)
