If that's accurate, I have to question their strategy.  NC, AR, and TN but no AZ or CO?

I'm sure they just randomly colored in different parts of the map.  Same with Manchurian Candidate, the electoral map made absolutely no sense.

I don't know.  Althougt that map is not likely, it's not entirely impossible.

During the Season Finale, there was a massive map of battleground states too.  If I remember correctly, it's much different.  I'm sure some research was put into making sure it was semi-plausible, but it's not an accurate reflection on what an actual Santos campaign would be doing.

Remember, in the WW universe a lot more states are in play.  It would be nice if they had made a series bible that explained the politics of the nation tothe writers instead of this "the whole nation is a swing state if we want it to be" policy.

Here is what the map that was hanging at Santos Headquarters looked like:

The map at Vinick's Headquarters was identical except that IL was considered a toss-up.
