I think the election was way too close in the show. Underwood was never elected POTUS, he is not very liberal, he's very controversial, and is literally avoiding murder accusations. Not to mention, making your wife your running mate is a bizarre and stupid idea. This is how I'd see the election actually going.
Governor Will Conway (R-NY)/General Ted Brockhart (R-??) - 496 EVPresident Francis J. Underwood (D-SC)/First Lady Claire Underwood (D-TX) - 31 EV(Ohio's governor does not pull the voting stations as the election is pretty much done, therefore the Underwoods cannot narrow the election down to Ohio. The attack still happens in Tennessee, however)
