The election has the lowest turnout in years as the Democratic base have trouble rallying around a slate of someone to the left and to the right of the party while the Republicans are outraged that the Republican nominees are too libertarian. All 4 candidates are from states that favor the other political party that they aren't registered in, however, both Presidential nominees, ElectionsGuy and TNF, and VP nominee, Goldwater, are able to carry their home states of Wisconsin, Kentucky and Washington respectively due to their high elasticity and their favorable ratings in the states. Senator Maxwell, while popular in Oklahoma, is too polarized of a state and disapproves of TNF too much to swing in the Democrats favor. Ultimately, the libertarian Republican ticket narrowly picks up the victory over the Odd Couple Democrats.
