Humphrey with the guy from Oklahoma.  Nixon refused to debate and I called him out on trying to sabotage peace negotiations.



Wallace won South Carolina with only 595 more votes than Humphrey.  Nixon was less than 1000 votes short of Humphrey in Tennessee.

Does anyone know if it's realistically possible to hold everyone under a majority in the EC in 1896? There are three candidates, so it's theoretically possible, but I don't really see a path to doing it - boosting Palmer in the south seems to boost McKinley a lot too.

Carter/Mondal on Normal

Got pretty unlucky with some of the chance questions (debates, etc.), but I managed to get a sizeable win and apparently did better than 96.5% of games with the same candidate/difficulty.

I had a real 2000 result for 2000. I won as Gore with 272 electoral votes. He won Wisconsin 48.4-48.4, Tennesee 49.2-49.1, and Oregon 47.5-47.4. The recounts must have been crazy. Bush won Florida 49.3-49.0 and Iowa 48.3-48.3. Ironically Bush won the popular vote 48.7-48.3.

Do note that for Carter it's pretty safe to avoid the debates. Your support takes a small hit, but far less than the hit it will take if Ford does well in the debates.

I just did the same, but more of a landslide.

Bryan/Stevenson on easy, still probably one of the most unique Bryan victory scenarios:

LOL, with this one, Gore didn't need Florida, but it made the real Florida 2000 look like a landslide. He won by 13 votes.

2000, played as Gore/Leiberman and managed to sabotage myself enough to get a Nader victory in not just D.C., but Rhode Island as well.

You are literally the first person to have done this. I recently checked the stats page for 2000 and the most Nader had ever gotten was 3 EVs, so I'm pretty sure this is a record breaker.

Wow.

Wow.

Actually, upon checking, no. Someone got Nader to win in MA, too. Select impossible on the 2000 stats page.

Dang.

I want to try to give Utah to Buchanan with Bush; apparently it's possible but I haven't seen it done.

I'm hoping for 1960, 1980, 1992, and 2004/2008. An Obama-Dean ticket would be really fun.

I did it here: http://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/47055

The basic technique is to campaign as an ultra liberal, but some of it is luck as well, as you can't get it unless the game gives you questions allowing you to be very anti-gun, pro-single payer, and very pro-choice.

Those would be fun.  I'd also love to see 1912.
