Clinton/Kaine- 287 EVs, (50.8%)Cruz/Fiorina- 251 EVs, (48.2%)Cruz would have improved on Romney's total from 2012, picking up IA, CO, & ME. He would most likely perform better than Trump in AK, UT, VA, the South, MN, CO. He would be doing much better with Hispanic voters and college-educated voters. While doing worse in OH, NV, MI, and PA. He would get crushed in the NE and have absolutely no chance of winning NH. OR and other socially moderate states would be out of play due to Cruz's rigid social conservative views. Cruz is an inelastic candidate with radical views and could not appeal to enough moderate swing voters. This would most likely cause him to lose to Clinton.
