GOP Prez Primary 2016: Rand Paul v. Chris Christie v. Marco Rubio

[defe07]

Ok, guys, let's assume that this year, Obama gets re-elected with a strong margin over Romney and wins big in the Electoral College with over 350 Electors. Stein gets about 3% of the vote while Johnson picks up in the final days before Election Day and is willing to get 9% of the vote, winning a couple of Electoral Votes.

Final 2012 Presidential Election Results:

Obama 46% 360 EV
Romney 39% 168 EV
Johnson 9% 10 EV (NM, ME-2, NE-2, AK)
Stein 3% 0 EV
Others 3% 0 EV

For 2016, Obama ends his term qith more unpopular measures getting by. The GOP looks at this time as the perfect time to get somebody responsible in.

The race is between Senator Rand Paul, Senator Marco Rubio and Governor Chris Christie.

What would a GOP Presidential Primary map look like and what would the vote totals be?

It originally starts as a battle between Christie and Rubio. But because of their bickering, Paul picks up Iowa, and gains momentum throughout. Rubio, not able to get any traction out of the south, late in the season endorses Rand Paul. Its the conservatives vs. the moderates, and yet some of Rand Paul's social positions, such as his states rights stance on marijuana, manages him to sweep the last primaries.
