ME-02, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, and Florida aren't called by Thursday morning, and the election isn't called until the call of Pennsylvania 10 days later.

Let's make things interesting, shall we?

Governor Emily Peebleton (D-NC) / Senator Tom Parrotstein (D-VA) - 265
Senator Xavier Treme (R-TN) / Businessman Oswald Ramarhkrishnan (R-OR) - 263
With the advantage of an unpopular Republican ticket, Governor Peebleton was leading throughout the race, but on October 26, records of sex-reassignment surgery came up. While a gaffe by Senator Treme misgendering her helped her bounce back in the polls and win her back the popular vote from behind, it couldn't get her to 270 by the time the Electoral College met. Minnesota abstaining, the GOP-dominated Congress votes in Treme in January. Perhaps the cruelest piece of the election (for Democrats, that is): The recounts in Minnesota ended on July 7. Peebleton led by 21 votes.

Xing's popularity out west and consolidation of some conservadems isn't enough to overcome the advantage Peebs has in the South and Northeast.

Xing has the establishment money and great rapport with Latino voters, Mr. Smith tries to counter with a strange coalition of populists, conservadems, and religious black people.

The  result is, Super Tuesday is largely won narrowly by Mr. Smith, but he gets blown out just about every other big day.

Only because of home-state respect does California stay as narrow as it does.

In a stunning upset, the contested Democratic convention nominated moderate Virginia Senator Tom Parrotstein over a field of progressives. He was up against Montana Governor Indy Rep (pardon the ridiculous name Tongue). However, once a progressive third party challenge arose, combined with the national dissatisfaction with the Democratic party, it became clear that Parrotstein would lose. In a bizarre step epic trolling, he withdrew his name from the New Hamphire ballot (the Progressives didn't make the deadline).
On election night, the angriest victory speech in the history of the Unites States was destined to occure...

Was gonna write a big thing about gender polarization for TNV, but okay. Tongue

President Tom Parrotstein (VA)
Governor Emily Peebleton (NC)
Governor Peebleton only applied for the North Carolina ballot as a joke, and won in an upset against President Parrotstein.

Anyway, here's what I had in mind for TNV: The Duality of Angry Woman

Congresswoman Marla T. Treasurer (R-MT) / Businessman Oswald Ramarhkrishnan (R-OR) (replacing Senator Xavier Treme (R-TN)) - 299/50.2%
Governor Emily Peebleton (D-NC) / Senator Tom Parrotstein (D-VA) - 239/49.8%
In a contested convention, Martin Treasurer was picked as the Republican nominee, and he picked Tea Party champion Xavier Treme. Peebleton won in a tough, yet decisive victory against Senator Corey Crane of Washington. She picked Senator Tom Parrotstein as her running mate.
Beyond that, it was an average election... until the debates. Peebleton was confronted about a rumor that had recently surfaced. A former neighbor mentioned in an interview that he knew the now-Governor Peebleton as a young boy.
When she was about to confirm or deny the rumor, a woman named Ann Grey (nee Angerson) jumped onto the debate stage and castrated Treasurer, shouting "Heil Hassan, the Fuhrer of New Hampshire! The Reich of Angry Women will last for 78,779 years!" Her twin brother, Walter Heisenberg (again, ne Angerson), forced to take his wife's name, jumped on as well, shouting "Not if the Angry Men can help it! Sic semper trannies!" as he shot Peebleton.
From the hospital, Peebleton confirmed that she was indeed a trans woman, while Treasurer legally changed her gender and name to fit herself post-castration. Despite her previous remarks, this caused Treasurer to rise in polling of women.
Treme, believing that he had been running with a mentally ill (read: transgender) person this whole time, withdraws his name from the ticket, and is replaced by businessman Oswald Ramarhkrishnan by the RNC in spite of Treasurer's disavowal of his ""moderate" positions", in her own words.
By the end, polarization, the D next to Peebleton's name, and the Ds that used to be in both candidates' pants had combined to provide the map of a lifetime and the angriest victory speech in history.

Emily Peebleton (NC)
Chip Cashew (CA)

Cashew in an upset manages to win Texas, however his coalition of Hispanics, Conservadems, Leftists, and Mormons is not enough. He fails to win his socially liberal home state, and the Black establishment manages to lock him out of the rest of the south.

Governor Chip Cashew (D-CA)
Senator C. X. Smith (D-MA)

Although the Democratic primary was initially crowded, it eventually boiled down to two very different candidates: Cashew, a socially moderate and economically liberal governor from California, and Smith, an economically moderate and socially liberal senator from Massachusetts. Although the primary was competitive at first, Cashew eventually amassed a comfortable delegate lead.

CXSmith - 332 EVs
Goldwater - 206 EVs

We are both poor fits for the South and the Midwest, though I am going off the assumption that the black vote would end up bring more loyal towards Smith than the rural white vote would towards me, which is why he wins in places like NC and OH.

1964:

Senator Barry Goldwater (R-CA) / Congressman William Miller (R-NY) - 271
Governor Emily Peebleton (D-NC) / Senator Hubert Humphrey (D-MN) - 267

PoD: Goldwater is literally just the poster except born in 1909 instead of 1995.
President Lyndon Johnson chose Governor Emily Peebleton of North Carolina, who had been serving her state since 1961, to be his running mate. However, when Johnson suffered a massive heart attack, killing him, on September 1, 1964, the Democratic National Committee chose Peebleton to be the top of the ticket, following President John McCormack declining to run. She chose Senator Hubert Humphrey as her running mate.
It proved to be an odd match-up. Peebleton was able to use the death of her former running mate to gain sympathy votes, and while Peebleton had a slim lead and seemed likely to become the 38th and first female president, a private investigator found in October that she had a "Christine Jorgensen" ten years prior. Despite this Goldwater's centrism relative to OTL's Goldwater and theoretical electability, it somehow came down to the wire, and after several days and recounts in Colorado and North Carolina, Goldwater prevailed in both, with a 2% lead in the NPV. Upon the call of her home state for Goldwater, Peebleton conceded.

Former Sec. of State Emily Peebleton (D-NC)
entered into the ring with a field mostly empty, with only CA-2 Congressman Lloyd Smith [D-Lakeport] offering a real challenge. While things looked likely to be an upset as Smith won Iowa in an upset and barely lost New Hampshire, the tide started to reverse again as Super Tuesday came, seeing most states go to Peebleton with states by Smith won narrowly. Ultimately, the loss of Arizona was the final straw for the Smith campaign, but a good chunk of states still protest voted for him anyway upon a leak revealing Peebleton had a sex change.

I've already done one with you, so let's try something different and bizarre Tongue



After a series of economic crises and wars under President Trump, the Republican party has collapsed. Its electorate forsook it, and those who did not have split into various minor parties, way too focused on salvaging some Senate and House seats to bother with the Presidential race. It seemed like the Democrats might run in the 2024 election unopposed, but after the staunch economically leftist and socially moderate Larry Smith won the nomination, Senator Tom Parrotstein of Virginia declared an independent run. A socially liberal, economically centerist politician, he managed to win over many who wanted an alternative to the Democrats, but his socially liberal positions, as well as him being a homosexual, harmed him with traditional Republican electorate and he fell way short.

Senator Tom Parrotstein (D-VA)
Governor Emily Peebleton (D-NC)
After Parrotstein's upset in Iowa, intel on Peebleton revealing she had a sex change causes her polling to skyrocket in New Hampshire - angry women acknowledged her as one of their own, and angry men believed her to be a man infiltrating the inferior gender. Sadly, this caused her to falter everywhere else, winning only her home state afterwards.

Nah, it's a gender war up there, so angry men, transphobic as they are, see me as a spy for their team. Angry women, being more accepting, respect that I had the basic human decency required to leave the inferior team I was born a part of.
