Perhaps most lilkely:

Bush/Quayle    276
Wilder/Binghaman  258
Perot/Stockdale   4

But, with some strong campaigning and good fortune, maybe:

Wilder/Binghaman   282
Bush/Quayle  252
Perot/Quayle   4

However, here is the most nail-biting, hair-raising possible scenario, which puts Wilder just over the top in dramatic fashion.

Wilder-Binghaman   269
Bush-Quale   265
Perot-Stockdale   4

[Historico]

Here is how I think it would go down...Wilder would play the election alot like Clinton did as he was a Southern Centrist Governor. I think a better running mate like Tsongas might help a little bit, It just really wasn't Bush's year. Perot might actually win states, cuz I think the idea that the country isn't ready to elect a Black Man may in fact keep him in the race.

Douglas Wilder/Jeff Bingaman: 341 Electoral Votes
George H.W. Bush/Dan Quayle: 186 Electoral Votes
H. Ross Perot/James Stockdale: 11 Electoral Votes

Historico, why are FL, AZ, WY, KS and MT close?
