[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Governor T. N. Volunteer/Governor Steve Bullock - 402 EVs - 50.64%
Governor Leinad Daniels/Representative Peter King - 136 EVs - 33.19%
Senator Ted Cruz/Representative Jody Hice - 0 EVs - 13.88%

Governor Leinad of Georgia, winning the nomination after a tough primary, named New York Representative Peter King as his running mate, as an olive branch to the establishment. Meanwhile, Tennessee Governor T.N. Volunteer meanwhile named fellow Governor Steve Bullock as his running mate, and ran a populist campaign, with a concession to the base here and there. Ted Cruz, the runner up to the nomination, was unhappy at not having won, and was doubly angry when Peter King was named VP candidate. He thus ran as an Independent, siphoning votes away from the Republican ticket. He won the support of many tea-partiers, many of whom thought Leinad had done a corrupt bargain of sorts with the establishment, and were never that thrilled with him in the first place.
On Election Day, it was a landslide for the Democratic ticket. Ted Cruz' candidacy was a boon to Democrats, managing to take enough votes away from Leinad to cost him Texas, Indiana, even Leinad's home state of Georgia, which voted Democratic by more than 4 points (it did not help that Cruz's running mate was from the Peach State). Vote splitting allowed T.N. Volunteer to carry his home state of Tennessee, which had not voted Democratic in 20 years. All in all, the election saw the best performance for a Democrat in the Electoral College since 1964, beating Obama and Clinton's two landslides.
The Democratic ticket was even able to win a majority of the vote, a suprising accomplishment in a three way race.
