Interesting.

Hardly anyone is predicting Trump winning CT, RI and DE.

I wonder why. Trump is a perfect fit for those three states.


How on Earth is Trump a "perfect fit" for Connecticut?

Anyway, those states are just way too partisan to consider voting for a Republican. I mean, sure, in a 40-state landslide those states might flip, but that isn't happening.


Yeah, way too partisan like PA and MI?


PA and MI had been close in the Bush elections, and Obama won them by single digits in 2012. CT, DE, and RI have all been double-digit blowouts for the Democrats, even in elections that they lost. Not the same at all.

We'll see about CT, RI and DE.

But one thing is certain: Dem hacks are true to form - reliance on past events and blind trust that they will happen again no matter what. Dem hacks, that is why you fail.

They're too solid Dem.  Trump would have to do well on a Reagan-esque level to win them.

I agree that Democrats made that mistake with Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania this year, but that doesn't mean states that have consistently voted Democratic by massive margins are going to suddenly be competitive.

Trump could win RI and DE, but I gave CT to Harris on the strength of Hartford and the suburban NYC metro vote.

If not and Trump delivers on his promises:



President Donald J. Trump (R-NY) / Vice-President Michael R. Pence - 315 EVs, (52.2%)
Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) / Senator Al Franken (D-MN) - 223 EVs, (45.7%)



I think that he would get Minnesota, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, and maybe Colorado and Maine in this scenario.

I do not think that this is most likely to happen, but if the Trump presidency is successful, we could see this map.

FL and AZ are GOP leaning and certainly PA will vote solidly Democratic in 2018

OC, so you think it's all Clinton's fault? Another Dem candidate would have won the election?

Did you guys not learn your lesson a couple of weeks ago? SMH. I won't even "predict" maps for 2020 besides those in the profile under the avatar, and those will be guesses.

Eh, it's just a game. Obviously no one really has any idea.

If Trump does well, he adds NV + CO + MN to his side.

Trump - 331
Generic Democrat - 207

Click on the "evc" button with the picture of the calculator near the top of the page. Then, select the winner of each state and the percentage of the vote that candidate gets. Choose if you want to include percentages and the CD breakdown at the bottom, and select "Show Map Link" at the bottom to get a link that you can post in a comment here so that it appears as a map.
