1. Hillary had to fight for the nomination and had a serious challenge from the left
2. Jeb Bush is not the GOP nominee or VP pick
3. A political outsider is the GOP nominee
4. Turnout on both sides is down from 2012
5. States flipped that had not voted for the other party since the 1980s
6. Obama has gotten more popular

1. Warren came close to winning the nomination but Hillary pulled it out

2. Ted Cruz is the nominee with Scott Walker as his running mate and he wins the election by taking the Romney states+ FL OH VA and WI


Given number 4 this scenario was gonna result in a GOP win cause all the states that Romney won by less than 10 points had been won by the dem at least once since 1992(GA in 1992, AZ in 1996, MO in 1992/96, NE-2 and NC in 2008) so I dont see how this scenario is anything but a GOP win
