Let's suppose that the EU had an Electoral College winner-take-all type system and two dominant parties - one to the left of center and one to the right, and elected a President of the Union. What would their presidential election maps look like? Which nations would be safe-red or safe-blue, and which would be the swing nations?

Also suppose the US was a looser political and economic union like the EU, in which states had much stronger autonomy, and the national parliament had a strong multi-party system elected by the various states. What parties would emerge? Would the far-right be as strong in the US as it has become in Europe? What would be the party breakdown of some of the states?
