Edited my fictional character into a 1976 scenario:

Primaries



Chris Garrett (VT) 1505 final delegates
Carter (GA) 1432 final delegates
Byrd (orange), Wallace (yellow), Jackson (red)

Focused on a few big states, lost the final states (a whole lot of them) in a landslide, but eeked out a majority.

You lost your home state?

Played my first game earlier today. I chose to play through the 2004 election. Since I was short on time, I played just the General Election. I ran as Howard Dean against George Bush; I also turned on all three party candidates.

Here's how it turned out:





Former Governor Howard Dean (VT)/Senator John Kerry (MA) - 291 EV - 48,906,423 Votes - 47.9%
President George Bush (TX)/Vice President Dick Cheney (WY) - 247 EV - 51,064,805 Votes - 50%
Ralph Nader (CT)/Peter Camejo (NY) - 0 EV - 668,491 - 0.7%
Michael Badnarik (TX)/Richard Campagna (IA) - 0 EV - 697,827 - 0.7%
Michael Peroutka (MD)/Chuck Baldwin (FL) - 0 EV - 692,284 - 0.7%


I managed to squeeze by the electoral college, while losing the popular vote by just over 2 million votes.

I decided to try out the 2012 Scenario, and I picked Bachmann. I turned off Mitt Romney and Herman Cain, hoping for an easier time. Still ended up getting steamrolled over after Super Tuesday.



Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich of Georgia - 1656 Delegates
Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota - 291 Delegates
Governor Rick Perry of Texas - 265 Delegates
Former Governor Gary Johnson of New Mexico - 6 Delegates
Congressman Ron Paul of Texas - 3 Delegates
Former Governor Jon Huntsman of Utah - 2 Delegates
Former Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania - 2 Delegates

I really like the 2012 scenario! Just got to 400-odd delegates as Jon Huntsman, quite an achievement.

Can't wait for the Santorum surge update!

I've tried, briefly, with Cain and Romney on, and it seems like no one other than Romney, Gingrich and Cain have any sort of chance at winning the nomination.

This, although stays true to IRL I guess since the game starts just as Perry crashed. Assuming Santorum'll be boosted in the next update.

The President Gore in 2004 looked good, as well as the alternate 2000 with all the third party candidates. And the 2012 free-for-all Smiley

It's actually the 2008 Regional Primaries scenario -- I removed Obama/Clinton/Edwards/McCain/Romney/Huckabee at the start, so the nominees turned out to be Gore/Feingold vs. Giuliani/Romney.
I'm spacing through as Peroutka.

Polling map as of September 15th, 2008.


Note: I'm just cherry-picking the ridiculous maps.

That'd be even better if the final margin was less than 6 EVs.

In the 1968 scenario, I won the election by winning Wisconsin by 11 votes as RFK. Good times.

1992



Beat Brown and Tsongas easily in the primary. Won most of the Northern states while Clinton won most of the Southern ones. Eventually won the nomination. As for the GE, Bush was winning up until the last week or so when I hit him with a big scandal and ran a massive ad campaign. Cool to win with under 40% of the PV.

It is friggan impossible to win as Feingold, it took several tries just to get him through the primaries. After I finally won the nomination with him, this happened. Angry
