What would a Rubio electoral map have looked like?

I agree with this map. I would probably have flipped Michigan to Rubio.

If Rubio won the nomination and made the rumors true by selecting Nikki Haley as his running mate, he probably would have won more rural voters as Trump did. It would also had boosted him among African-American voters since Haley removed the Confederate flag from South Carolina's Capitol Hill after the shooting in Charleston in 2015, which would have made Rubio competitive in Detroit, thus helping him winning Michigan.

Keep in mind that UWS is is the same poster who thinks that Haley would cause the ticket to win Washington state due to the 'asian vote'. He still hasn't explained how rubio could not even win the hispanic vote in his own home state in a senate race against an abandoned dem opponent.

And yet it was tied : Rubio got 48 % of the Latino vote, that's high enough to win Florida.

And 48 % of the Hispanic vote in Florida is clearly better than Mitt Romney's record in 2012 when he got only 39 % of the local Latino vote and lost Florida to Barack Obama by less than one point of percentage.
