What would a Hillary Clinton vs Ben Carson matchup look like?

People here keep underestimating the percentage of black vote Carson would get in the general election.
The whites he may lose will not make a difference. Carson would easily carry all Romney states plus Ohio and Virginia and come close in Maryland and Pennsylvania (maybe win), maybe even in Michigan. However, Florida would be a problem and he may also be uncompetitive in places like Colorado, Nevada and Iowa. The map would look very different than normal election map of Bush/Obama years.

Romney lost Maryland by 26%...


I basically agree with Mehmentum's map, but maybe flip IN or NE-02.

Carson would go from maybe 6% to 11% of the black vote. He might find a way to get under 53% of the white vote. His statements comparing Obamacare to slavery and his comments on gay marriage would render him a complete joke.

I think even Cruz would do better than Carson.  At least Cruz holds political office and is an excellent debater.

But Larry Hogan won it by 4% in 2014!!1!

I don't trust the bitter AA's. We'd probably have Carson as President and America would officially be the joke it has aspired to be since the Reagan revolution.

If Carson is the nominee (LOL!), a 50-state-sweep would become more and more plausible.

Hillary would win Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, Women, Men, young as well as elderly voters.
I can see Utah being very close, but as I said before: With a strong campaign, it can turn Atlasian red.
