Didn't we just do this one?
Sawant is the only serious primary challenger to Kamala Harris, and wins the Iowa Caucus, crippling Harris's fundraising. Despite expectations that Harris will do extremely well in states like South Carolina, Sawant keeps things close by running up the score among white progressives, and ultimately forces Harris from the race when she wins the California Primary.

She then defeats Donald Trump, after picking Bernie Sanders as her running mate, as a John Kasich independent candidacy splits the Republican vote.

Shinzo Abe

Shinzo Abe, interested in genealogy finds out he was actually born in Huntsville, Alabama. After Mo Brooks stands down from AL-05 to run for Senate, he runs for the open seat. Donald Trump, suffering from poor health and a strained relationship with other Republicans encourages him to run, which he does, angry with the House GOP. He wins all states won by Trump in 2020 plus Georgia, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Maine, New Hampshire and Hawaii after the Biden administration commits a number of serious foreign policy errors.

Both major parties divide.  Democrats along the progressive/establishment wings and Republicans along the populist/non-populist wings.  The populist Republicans nominate someone even crazier than MTG, and George Conway acts more like a generic pre-Trump conservative than his 2021 self.  He is easily chosen by the House in an election where no one reached 270 electoral votes.

Rick Astley runs as a Democrat. At first Biden and Harris laugh at him, but he defeats Harris in the primaries after he opens the debate by saying 'Never Gonna Give You Up, Never Gonna Let You Down, Never Gonna Run Around and Desert You', to everyone's shock. He is tied with Donald Trump in the polls, but closes the final debate by saying 'Never Gonna Make You Cry, Never Gonna Say Goodbye, Never Gonna Tell A Lie and Hurt You'. He wins every state except Florida.

Joe Biden opts against a second term. Ellen DeGeneres runs against Kamala Harris in the Democratic primaries and argues she’s abandoned Southern California and hasn’t fought hard enough for Biden’s agenda. She narrowly defeats Josh Hawley in the general election.

Joe Biden is the greatest thing since the wheel and has a cult of personality larger than Kim Jong Un. He appoints Hunter as first Vice President and he leaves office in 2025.

For some reason, votes in Connecticut count more than in any other state, meaning Napier wins a majority of electoral votes despite only carrying Connecticut.

COVID comes back right before the election and Calipari doubles down on his pro-mask wearing stance and runs with Andy Beshear's strong endorsement and Beshear convinces Biden and Kamala to stand down and make KY a swing state again. Calipari wins big, but still loses KY.

Joe Biden somehow becomes twenty years younger. Then he runs for reelection, faces Trump again and wins easily. (he doesn't actually need step one, but that's the only way I vote for him in the Democratic Primary).

After five Representatives including Elissa Slotkin vote for David Petraeus as Speaker, in order to stop a more left-wing candidate, he increases his political involvement once again, disparaging Joe Biden and Kamala Harris but also warning against Trumpism. He runs as an independent a la Ross Perot with Condoleezza Rice as his running mate. He wins several states, including Florida, Georgia, Ohio, Colorado, Utah, New Jersey, Maine and Virginia, enough to put him second and pushing Trump to third. The election is decided by the House of Representatives in his favour.

Madigan runs in the Democratic primary for IL-03 in 2022 and manages to knock off Newman in a low-turnout race by appealing to those nostalgic for the Lipinskis. He runs for Speaker of the House, uncommon for a freshman, but wins narrowly from a coalition of Blue Dog Dems admiring his shrewdness and Freedom Caucus types who voted for him initially as a joke but came to desire what they thought would lead to a fractured and ineffectual Democratic caucus. Air Force One crashes with no survivors and Mikey M is elevated to the presidency. He runs for and earns the Democratic nod for 2024 amidst a crowded field of candidates unable to distinguish themselves from one another, and wins election to a full term on the strength of post-COVID economic recovery.

Tom Corbett runs in the Senate race in Pennsylvania this year and wins, then runs for President and wins the Republican Primaries. In the General Election, he defeats Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Jason Ravnsberg is discovered to have destroyed the Deep State all by himself, causing him to be endorsed by Trump, getting him the GOP nomination. The Dems nominate Bob Menendez, who is discovered to have been a serial killer. Ravnsberg wins and is inaugurated.

Bikini Bottom is discovered to be a U.S territory. Plankton receives more write-in votes for President than either the Democratic nominee, Bernie Sanders, or the Republican nominee, Marjorie Taylor-Greene, that he is elected President in the electoral college.

Coriolanus Snow is a perfectly normal US citizen, and it is discovered that the Hunger Games was actually a documentary set in Grand Isle County, VT. He is the only candidate to succeed Patrick Leahy. He successfully forces a DNC rules change so that the nominee is drawn in the same way as the Hunger Games, and it initially goes to Marcia Fudge, but she agrees to be Snow's candidate for Agriculture Secretary. Snow wins after pledging to nominate her, which causes the entire Midwest to vote for him.

He announces early and campaigns exclusively in South Carolina, where he wins the primary in a completely unexplainable landslide upset just like in 2010.

Chris Coons runs for president in an open field and wins the New Hampshire primary and then goes on to win big in Super Tuesday. He then goes on to defeat his Republican oppenent Ted Cruz by over 400 electoral votes in the general election.

It is revealed that he lied about his age and is actually 20 years older. After the GOP repudiates white nationalism and anti-semitism, he runs independent and wins.

America becomes a theocratic white separatist ethnostate.

Kamala Harris is assassinated by a right wing extremist in early 2024 and Joe Biden appoints Ed Markey to be her replacement. He is confirmed by both the House and the Senate easily and the Biden/Markey ticket is elected in 2024 with the slogan "Win with No Malarkey and Markey!" Less than a week after Thanksgiving President Biden passes away in his sleep (some suspect foul play but he actually died of natural causes) and Vice President Markey is sworn in as America's 47th President. Biden's would-be electors vote Markey for President and Stacey Abrams for Vice President

Perdue successfully primaries Brian Kemp and then runs for President in 2024, after Donald Trump is convicted of numerous felonies. He wins the South Carolina Primary, as well as many other Southern Primaries by virtue of being the only Southern candidate running, and defeats Kamala Harris in November.

Puts his name on the South Carolina primary ballot as a joke but actually manages to win. In every remaining primary that allows write in votes, he wins big as well. This leads to a big floor fight at the convention where he comes out with the nomination and wins the general election.

Jake Auchincloss wins the Dem nomination in the same way he won the MA-04 primary - he is the most prominent moderate running and as the leader he wins the contested convention. He wins in the general, performing poorly among progressives but winning enough moderates upset by a Hawley/McGeachin ticket.

For some reason, votes by Cubans in South Florida are worth ten times as much as any other vote.

Biden retires after one term. Harris fails to win the nomination, after several public gaffes as VP undermine her credibility. Sanders enters the race one last time - and wins.
