Trump/Pence (R) 45.5% 290 EV
Gillibrand/Franken (D) 48.5% 248 EV

The Access Hollywood tape drops in mid-October, causing a scandal for Trump, but the Franken photo drops in late October, too late for Gillibrand to drop Franken from the ticket.

Many of Gillibrand's supporters (and Gillibrand herself) blame Franken for the loss, while critics say Gillibrand should have vetted Franken more thoroughly and had her own flaws as a candidate.

There is not a snowball’s chance in hell Gillibrand does better than Hillary or chooses Franken as her VP.

Yeah I do not think Gillibrand would win the election. She may have well lost the popular vote too. Alben's map for me.

Gillibrand does significantly better than Hillary, largely because of a more successful campaign, and the pick of Elizabeth Warren is perceived as helpful as well.

Still, the best she can do, is a 269-269 tie.

The House chooses Trump, the Senate chooses Pence.
