Meaning, for the candidate you support(ed), which states would you NOT want them to win, for whatever reason. If you want them to win all 50 states, then there's no need to post here. Tongue Here's mine for Hillary:

Same as West Virginia - the state is a hellhole with tons of fake far right Democrats who vote straight ticket Republican every election. At least people recognize Oklahoma as the armpit it is though rather than glorify it with "muhhhhhh populist white working class!"

30: Kasich
20: Trump or Rubio

The other twenty states are to keep him from pandering to the religious/Tea Party base. Hopefully he would pick a Trump supporter like Scott Brown or a Rubio supporter like Brian Sandoval, Cory Gardner, Lindsey Graham, or Tim Scott for Vice President.

For the Dems:



A generic Sanders win map (14 point swing).

For the Republicans, Trump (Yellow) wins by a moderate margin over Kasich (Red) with Cruz (blue) floundering:

Bernie starts off by pulling off a shocking win in IA.  Crushes HRC in NH.  Manages to push the momentum into NV.  HRC still wins SC by a good margin.  Super Tuesday is similar to real life, except Bernie pulls out MA and breaks 90% in VT.  Bernie manages to pull out close contests in IL, MO, and KY in the Midwest, and also CT in New England.  He sweeps New England and the Midwest save OH, while HRC still cleans up in the Deep South.  Bernie then ends up winning the entire West save AZ, and here's how it happens:

In late May/early June, Bernie and Trump agree to hold a debate before CA and the final states (I know it won't actually happen, but don't wake me up from my dream).  Bernie puts in a YUGE performance and dominates Trump on the issues.  This sends a wake up call to Dem voters and the Dem establishment that Bernie is the candidate to beat Trump in November.  Bernie sweeps the remaining primaries.  Bernie barely gets the nomination in spite of many superdelegates remaining loyal to HRC.  Bernie wins in November.

GOP:



Trump=Blue, Cruz=Yellow, Carson=Green

Trump wins the entire eastern half of the U.S., while Cruz wins much of the western half.  Despite disappointing losses in IA, ME, and WI, Cruz goes the Bernie route and stays in until the convention as the #NeverTrump candidate.  Carson manages to win more than one state HD in AK and ends up winning the state.

Webb stays in and gets the disenfranchised angry white male vote. Meanwhile, caucuses are abolished before the primaries begin and Clinton over-performs in the Northwest because Smiley
