Both are very close elections.

Probably the bottom one. Though both are very plausible.  It would be better to see which states are swing states in 2032, though. 

The top one would be based on labor making a comeback and both parties reducing their reliance on religious and ethnic issues such as abortion and immigration.

The bottom is more plausible if the economy improves, the neoliberal consensus is even less challenged and Democrats are forced to rely on social issues to stay relevant.

But still, I think the first is more likely, but oh well.

I see New Hampshire going from Lean Dem to Likely Dem in the next 20 years and would be red in both maps

How about this?  It's basically a combination of demographic change and more purely urban-rural polarization instead of regional voting.



The key point is GA/AZ/FL not only shifting left but ultimately overtaking CO and NC.  IL would be equivalent to PA today.

That's an interesting map. Smiley

Republicans aren't going to win Minnesota, so map 1 by default.
