Jack: Again, thank you for your support
I wonder what 2020 would look like after Christie has his first term. Does anybody else pay attention to this thread anymore besides me?
I do. A few questions and corrections though.
1. How did Cuomo get 94% in New York?
2. How did Christie carry New Jersey. His high approvals come fromDemocrats, which would end during a Federal Elction with him on the opposing side.
3. Georgia would be way closer than that. 53-46 is Cuomo's base of support.hes got the black vote and would get more southern whites.
4. Cuomo wouldn't get 57% in Minnesota either.
5. Screw It. These vote totals are overall crazy. But...... This was enjoyable. Continue.
Thank You for your input. I would say the following;
1. Cuomo's approval ratings are in the 70s, I feel that he would be able to enjoy strong support in New York.
2. Christie can win New Jersey - most likely by 3-5 points, not by a wider margin though. While some of the democrats who approve of his job as Governor would support Cuomo, there are still plenty of New Jersey democrats who would back Christie. A recent poll actually shows Christie fifteen points ahead of Cuomo for 2016.
3. Mitt Romney won 53% of the vote in Georgia in 2012. John McCain won 52% of the vote there in 2008. Christie and Cuomo are both north-easterners, so the votes they get in the south are based more on party than the actual candidates.
4. President Obama won 54% of the vote in Minnesota in 2012. I believe Governor Cuomo's brand of democrat - fiscally centrist, socially progressive, will fair well in midwestern blue states.
5. Thank You
