Lol you think Hillary won't lose CO by 20%. She's a horrible fit for the state.

Reagan the person, in an actual campaign? No.

Reagan the myth in a telephone Gallop poll that people think about for 5 seconds? Almost certainly.

If he were alive, in good health, and eligible? No reason he couldn't.

Plugging the 1980 and 1984 exit polling numbers for Whites, Blacks and Hispanics (Asians were not polled in those years, so I left them at the 2012 default numbers, even though Reagan obviously did better than Romney with Asians) into the RCP demographic calculator, and leaving turnout figures at 2012 levels, we get the following:

1980

275-263

1984

341-197

Reagan rising from the dead? Yes, winning at least 400 electoral votes.

Reagan having been born later enough to be running today? He'd likely be defeated in the primary due to his pro-immigrant stance, desire to compromise, and being willing to raise taxes sometimes. But if he made it to the general he'd win, with at least 320 electoral votes.

Reagan could beat Hillary, Obama, Bernie and honestly any of the GOP contenders. He's in a class all of his own.

But the real question is: Carter and Mondale could beat Trump?

Reagan doesn't have anywhere near a net -24 favorable rating, so yes.
