Hawkeye (D) : 45%, 358 EVs
Tb75 (R) : 35%, 153 EVs
Cathcon (I) : 20%, 27 EVs


Hawkeye does reasonably well in traditional democratic States, especially in the most liberal one. TB75 establishes itself as the stronges conservative candidate thanks to a strong electoral base in the South. Cathcon has a notable success in the Rust Belt and in the West, where is paleoconservative stance is apreciated, but quite poorly overall. Vote split ensures Hawkeye an easy win.

If you think I'm a paleo-conservative, you're wrong, though I appreciate you giving me the moutain west and Indiana.

Left-wing split results in very good results for Shua though Bacon King does well in his native South, winning a few Clinton states. Despite coming in third, BK gets second in the popular vote.

Shua-312
Antonio-136
Bacon King-90

Accidentally gave Nix Alaska. Assume it goes to Pingvin.

Pingvinn (Constitution-Russia)
RFK (Democrat-New York)
Averroes Nix (Independent-New York)

Despite Ping's staunch Conservatism, he wins a plurality due to liberal vote splitting. Averroes Nix & RFK form a tag team of sorts with RFK campaigning heavily in solidly progressive states while Nix campaigns in more moderate states, however, it is not enough.

Scott (D) 293 electoral votes
Pingvin (R) 234 electoral votes
Nix (L) 11 electoral votes

Pingvin runs as a proud Tea-party type Conservative, leading some on the center to abandon to Scott, who's running as a "New Democrat". Meanwhile, some far left Democrats, alienated by Scott's campaign, flee to Nix, whose only major difference with Scott is on foreign policy. As well, North-Eastern independents, liberals, and moderates vote for Nix. By winning the center as well as the majority of the nation's liberals, Scott enters the oval office, not having won a majority of the popular vote.

SuperSonivVenue and BritishDixie are forced to team up due to them both being R-UK, and thus indistinguishable from each other. They face another non-American, Antonio V. Looking at the ethnic breakdown, Antonio has the advantage amongst the French and the Italians while the duo British Republican team has of course the advantage among Brits, and altogether among WASPs. However, they are still hampered by not ideologically fitting that well with some of the areas where WASPs hold a lot of presence, such as New England. Antonio uses his dual-citizenship as well as the fact that he comes from not one but two Latin-speaking countries to appeal to immigrants and Hispanics. Due to America's political leanings, the duo-British team wins.

(This scenario does not address the religion issue. I know Antonio is an athiest or something close to it, but it's too convenient to include that)



269-269 tie.

Jesus. Hate to think of what me vs. SuperSonic and BD is gonna look like.

1940. In a surprise, President Scott at the Democratic National Convention accepts the draft to run for a third term. Meanwhile, the Republicans are experiencing an internal rift. A young, right-wing one-term Washington Governor going by the name of Goldwater is able to capture the heart of the convention, winning the support of folks like Taft and Vandenberg to take the nomination. Despite Goldwater's own concerns about Nazi Germany, the conservatives slap him with an isolationist platform. Meanwhile, the moderate internationalists, concerned by Goldwater's nomination, put up Congressman S.S. Venue of Tennessee as their own independent candidate. Venue is more economically moderate than Goldwater though still to the right of Scott and due to his status as a third generation British American is very supportive of protecting his island from the ravages of Nazi aggression. In later years, a conspiracy would develop that the attempt to nominate Venue was a "British plot". In any case, Venue would try to build an independent coalition that would bring in North-Eastern moderates as well as Southern Republicans who he hoped he could cajole with his moderate economic stances. The most significant result would be a splitting of the Republican vote allowing Scott to win, benefiting from Venue's "foreign policy adventurism" and Goldwater's "dangerous economic policies".


President Scott (D-CT)/Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace (D-IA) 461 electoral votes, 48% of the popular vote
Governor Goldwater (R-WA)/Senator H. Styles Bridges (R-NH) 67 electoral votes, 38% of the popular vote
Congressman S.S. Venue (I-TN)/Mr. Wendell Willkie (I-NY) 3 electoral votes, 12% of the popular vote

Despite the outcome and what it represented, Scott would go on to lead American into WWII and, following Pearl Harbor, former Governor Goldwater would gladly offer support for the war effort and when he entered the Senate would become one of the most prominent Cold War hawks. Venue and his running-mate Willkie would both go on to experience several health concerns related to smoking. This would result in Venue's descendants strongly pushing for anti-tobacco legislation in the 1960's. Despite this, Venue and Goldwater reunited at the 1948 convention to support Thoms Dewey as the GOP's nominee.

1892
After four years of a bland and largely unaccomplished Harrison administration, and the failure of the McKinley Tariff of 1890, the Republicans aren't in good shape. With the Northeast alienated by Harrison's pro-silver policies, they strike back and nominate one of their own for President. General Goldwater, a Civil War veteran, pioneer, and a pro-imperialism conservative, represents a change from the boring and unpopular Harrison policies. However, despite his support from the delegats, he is treated by the Democrats and Populists as another tool of the elites. The Democrats nominate the free trading, quasi-populist James Brase, a two-term Texas Senator. Anti-imperialist, anti-tariff, and vocally opposed to prohibition and other forms of social control, he utilizes whistle stop tours to take away important support in New England the Mid-West that would've gone to Goldwater in an ordinary election. However, while he picks moderates away from Goldwater, the Populist nominee TNF hits at both left flanks, taking significant swaths of rural voters in the West and South. With Goldwater still holding together important chunks of the Republican electoral coalition and Brase being routed in the South, the election goes to the Democrat-controlled House where Brase is elected.

Senator James Brase (D-TX)/Governor Horace Boies (D-IA) 181 electoral votes, 42% of the popular vote
General Goldwater (R-WA)/Ambassador Whitelaw Reid (R-NY) 151 electoral votes, 41% of the popular vote
Congressman TNF (P-KY)/Congressman Thomas Watson (P-GA) 112 electoral votes, 16% of the popular vote

With the Panic of 1893, Brase would become unpopular though would always remain a hero to "classic liberals" and to party conservatives. Goldwater would manage to be nominated a second time in 1896 and beat William Jennings Bryan. Much to TNF's dismay, the Populist party would die and its reforms would only be implemented within the two party system, if at all.

1948
With the surprising death of President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1945, the nation was left in the hands of Theodore N. Fauntroy, a small town teacher who'd built his political career on support from mining and education unions. A former Governor who'd been surprisingly chosen for Vice President over Henry Wallace in 1944, few expected much from "TNF". However, over the next few years the war would be won and TNF would work to prepare the nation for a post-WWII age. This involved heavy tariffs as well as funding going towards the rebuilding of Europe. However, not all would be pleased. With a bad economy and a Republican-controlled Congress, both the left and the right were dissatisfied. From the right came one of America's leaders in WWII, Michael Motley, known by his battlefield nickname of "Madman".  While he opposed the United Nations, he had little problem with NATO and many believed he was willing to take America to war with the USSR. Domestically, Motley was deeply conservative and wished to fundamentally alter the New Deal. From the left came Antonio Vital. The son of Italian and French immigrants who had originally settled in New York, Vital moved West and became a good friend of Upton Sinclair. Elected to the House in 1930 as a Democrat, he became good friends with a number of East Coast liberal Italians including Fiorella LaGuardia and Vito Marcantonio. While one of the most left-wing members of Congress on economic issues, he always made sure to distance himself from "lol true leftists" and only criticized President Roosevelt during the days of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact when it seemed that going to war with Germany meant going to war with the Soviet Union. Now that the war is over, Vital is pushing for much more radical economic legislation, greater partnership with the Soviet Union, and an end to "witch hunts" in the Pentagon and the State Department.

While Antonio would rob TNF from a significant portion of his base, a number of moderate Republicans, fearing "Madman Motley" would lead to all out war only three years following the last one's resolution, would reluctantly stay home from the polls, allowing TNF to claim victory with a coalition of blue collar workers, immigrants, Southerners, and labor. Motley would take conservatives and a number of northern farmers while Antonio claimed liberal intellectuals, blacks, hispanics, and some more progressive rural voters.

President Theodore Nugent Fauntroy (D-KY)/Former Governor Maurice J. Tobin (D-MA) 270 electoral votes
General Michael "Madman" Motley (R-IN)/Governor Thomas Dewey (R-NY) 232 electoral votes
Congressman Antonio Vital (P-CA)/Former Vice President Henry Wallace (P-IA) 29 electoral votes
