I've been working on these for a while, so far I have 1824, 1908, and 2000, though I can't find 2000 nor the map for 1824.




Red denotes Roosevelt/Fairbanks and Blue denotes Wilson/Marshall

Infoboxes for this post.

I have a question. I know how to modify the election infoboxes on Wikipedia, but how do you include the map of the states with the electoral votes indicated? Are there any good places where I could find pictures for fictional candidates? And how would you add Puerto Rico, as well as the U.S. Virgin Islands, to the map?

1. I copied a map of the election I had made, colored over the original map, and merged the layers.
2. You have to find an image for an "identifier" of the fictional candidate (i.e. for a blue dog from West Virginia, go with Joe Manchin).
3. Change the part of the map URL preceding AL to https://uselectionatlas.org/TOOLS/genusmap.php?type=mock&year=2016&off=0&ev_c=0&ev_p=0&pty=2& and add &PR=(party);(EV);(%) to gain access to Puerto Rico. No way to add the Virgin Islands, I'm afraid.

What do you mean "merged the layers"? I'm trying to do the same thing myself (for um, no reason )

I use paint.net, where you can open a new layer to an image.

I went there and it redirected me to a website that sells physical paint

Add a "get" to the beginning.

Do his contemporaries call him William J. Rutherford B. Hayes?

Maybe he watches 3rd Rock. William J. Rutherford, Ohio.

No way that happens without a major third party candidate.

I see the joke which you have made. It is a good joke. But the scenario itself also warrants some attention.

I've seen the scenario laid out in great detail in your other posts, so I don't feel like I have anything substantial to add. It's a well-thought-out chain of events though!

Not an election, but Scott Bakula in an alternate universe.

I'm from St. Louis. I'd never heard of that guy.

He's an actor who happened to have been born there. See: Quantum Leap.
