Here's a good one. What would've happened if Perot didn't withdraw in '92 (which means that he wouldn't have re-entered the race a few months later) and how would a possible election map look like (as well as both Electoral Vote and popular vote totals). Thanks!

I'm not so sure it would have made much of a difference. In fact, he might have gotten fewer votes if he had stayed in all the way. I think one reason he got so many votes was that everyone was expecting Clinton to win easily, and thus a lot of people felt like it wouldn't affect the results if they cast a protest vote for Perot.

The states remain more or less the same, about -1% each for Clinton and Bush and +2% for Perot. I think Perot wins an EV in Maine with that.
