I went on easy mode to see how big of a landslide I could get. It might have been even bigger if I had chosen to debate.

I know that even in normal you start with a huge lead in every state but Utah. Was wondering if you found a way to maintain that.

It's impossible to maintain. The playboy thing always hurts you, and it's impossible to win the debate.

It's so weird that Carter can't win the '76 debate, but Dukakis can win in the '88 scenario? That pup don't hunt.

I played as Dukakis and 2 out of 3 times I either lost the debate or it was inconclusive

I just played a Duke game and won the debate so I think the option is still out there.

In my experience it's almost impossible to win on hard without Dukakis winning the debate, so I know the option is available.

Won with Ford on normal. Hitting Carter hard on most foreign policy questions seemed to have the best effect.

Ford/Dole 277 EVs
Carter/Mondale 261 EVs
