Well, with my vote (for Supersoulty), this poll is extremely close.

50-50.

As a Southerner, I will be campaigning like crazy for Supersoulty-Demrepdan in Georgia and other southern states - Mississippi included.

Just out of curiosity, wouldn't California (in our fantasy election) go Republican?  ...Since we've got at least 2 California Republicans and no California Democrats?

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Smiley Smiley

Gustaf, you've inspired me now to make my own map.  Before, I was afraid I'd screw it up and not post it right.

w00t, Gustaf!

Ah ok, makes sense then.  Thanks, Gustaf!

Ok... I'm having trouble posting this map.  Why am I stupid?

This is my more "reality" map, as I think it would happen in real life, after a few close states...

Okay.  Let's start up some more debate.  This map is first based on those registered to vote in our election (ie Ca, N.J. go Rep based on the voters in the fantasy election).  Second, with those states that were not represented by anyone registered, I simply judged on how they would probably go in real life or how they might be influenced by registered voters nearby.

In the case of Minnesota and New York...yep, toss-ups, b/c in each state we have 1 Dem and 1 Rep.  Minnesota would be a toss-up anyway, I believe but there's no question New York would go Dem in *any* alternate reality.  lol

Ah, ok.  But did Finn register to vote?

All I did was look at the names in the Voter Registration thread.  So if Finn wasn't there, I didn't count him - same goes for anyone else who wasn't anywhere to be found in that thread.

And, of course, being human I might have made a few mistakes here and there.  One I already corrected, having Miss. go Republican while Alabama went Dem - now fixed.

I wonder what Leip's political leanings are.  He has that Indpendent avatar, but I don't believe him.

I've wondered this before too.  Hmmm.

Yes, he registered. There are actually two or more independents from NY, so it could be interesting....but they haven't registered.

Okay, cool.  So 2 Dems, 1 Rep in N.Y.  That puts N.Y. in the Dem column.  I edited my last map to reflect that.  The next toss-up would now be Minnesota.  I would put that as lean Republican, considering that Gustaf isn't actually from Minnesota!  lol  But this IS a fantasy election.....
