National D vs D General Election map

xingkerui in red

LLR in blue

LLR wins big in the south due to perceptions of xingkerui being a "latte liberal"

xingkerui wins most of suburbia due to being "more moderate".

The vote is tied in Pennsylvania.

[evergreenarbor]

Democratic primary: Washington Senator Xīng Kěruì v. Representative Meg "Omega" Scarlet (AZ-03):

Rep. Scarlet appeals to western voters, Hispanics, and populists. Sen. Kěruì runs as the "establishment" candidate and does well in the Northwest.

Oddities on the map:
-New Hampshire votes Kěruì because it felt contrarian after Iowa voted Scarlet.
-Happy South Dakota Farmers break 100-0 for Kěruì and he wins in a landslide.
-Scarlet wins her birth state of Idaho despite the fact that Idaho is technically in the Northwest.
-Kěruì wins Montana because parts of it are pretty Northwestern.
-Utah would have voted for Scarlet, but Kěruì dug up footage of Scarlet saying that God is fictional.

Closest state: California.

[Intell]

2020 Presidential Election

Senator Senator Eva Green (D-WA): 64%
Representative Omeaga Scarlet (D/S-AZ): 27%
Senator John Faceas (D-PA): 8%

As Hillary Clinton, sadly passed away in office, it was left to her VP, Tim Kaine to finish the rest of her term. Though he could have seeked a term in his own right, he decided against it, opting to retire. The democratic party was split on the legacy on Hillary Clinton, and her sucessor Tim Kaine. Senator Eva Green, a female senator from the state of Washington, ran as her sucessor, and pointed out the accomplishment of Hillary Clinton, such as immigration reform, the continuation of obamacare, and more free trade deals.

On the other hand, a more radical, socialist faction, opposed her legacy. Calling her a sell out to wall street, financial backers, and the Isreal-neo conservative agenda. Led by Arizona representative Omeaga Scarlet, who views her legacy negatively. However he fails to gain traction, due to his controversial statements, on polygamy and prostitution to name two.

Disastified, with what he calls two of the same latte-liberal on the high throne, former populist senator, John Faceas of Pennsylvania, runs as a protest against these two candidates, calling for reversal of trade deals, stopping illegal immigration, lowering taxes, and a working man not elitist democratic party. He manages to do quite well with disenchanted democrats, in rural, working class areas.

[Mr. Smith]

Governor Eva Greene-Arbor [D-WA]
Fmr. Senator V. Finn Tell [D-GA]

Governor Arbor appeals to the DNC, latte liberals, and Minnesota-nice voters, Senator Tell picks up the dissatisfied with the establishment.

Tell gets most of Super Tuesday, but creamed at Acela Time and the West Coast Push.

EDIT: Whoops, wrong thread. Map rework coming up.

[WVdemocrat]

Democratic Primary

Intell (55.79%)
L.D. Smith (43.9%)

Intell enters the primary race as the establishment favorite for the Democratic nomination for president. L.D. Smith runs an insurgent campaign as a Blue Dog conservative Democrat. Millions of people (particularly in Appalachia) who are socially conservative and fiscally left-wing, vote in a Democratic primary again for the first time in a generation. Smith sees his most lopsided victories in the West, especially in states with huge Mormon populations. Ultimately, however, and despite the fact that his campaign brought millions of "dixiecrats" into the process, there simply was no room in the modern Democratic Party for a conservative Democrat. Intell is coronated as the Democratic nominee for president.

If Clinton doesn't shift right, I don't think I'd be that condemning of her in such a primary.

[Goldwater]

Dem Primary:

Governor Angelo (D-WV)
Senator Kingpoleon (D-AR)

[heatcharger]

Barry Goldwater (L-CA) / Mark Warner (D-VA) - 50.5% - 280 EV
Tennesee Volunteer (R-MT) / Ron Johnson (R-WI) - 47.8% - 258 EV

[OneJ]

Let's switch things up a little...

FNN, aka Fake News Network, releases their day before the 2024 election today. Heatcharger currently has the advantage with a total of 258 electoral votes. MT Treasurer is trailing behind with just 179 electoral votes locked in. 101 states are up for grabs.

[Xing]

Govenor Heatcharger (D-VA) starts out as the establishment-backed favorite and a massive fundraising advantage. However, he faces a strong challenge from recently elected Senator OneJ (D-MS), who draws enthusiastic support from progressives and young people. Sen. OneJ shows particular strength in his home region, the Deep South, and also does very well in the West, particularly in caucus states, while Gov. Heatcharger remains strong in much of the Midwest, as well the Southwest and Appalachia. In the end, OneJ narrowly wins, though he decides to pick Heatcharger as his running mate to unite the party, after a very contentious primary.

[heatcharger]

Senator xīngkěruì (D-WA) enters the race early and builds up his Western firewall as he appears to be the unchallenged frontrunner. However, freshman Congressman OneJ (D-MS) starts gaining regional prominence in the South and Midwest by running as the true heir to Obama. Xingkerui dominates early in Iowa and New Hampshire, but OneJ's huge win in SC starts his romp in the South, and racks up delegates there in bunches. The two trade victories across the country, but following Xingkerui's controversial comments about the state of Wisconsin and his subsequent losses in WI, IN, and NY, OneJ looks poised to take the nomination. To the contrary however, xingkerui's Western firewall holds, and his massive victory in California makes him the Democratic nominee.

[OneJ]

Heatcharger (D-VA) became the first candidate to announce his run in July for the presidency on the Democratic side and was the Establishment favorite for a while.

However, Xingkěruì (D-WA) announced his bid a month later and made considerable gains in the polls representing the major Progressive candidate.

Early on, Xingkěruì took advantage of his momentum built and won Iowa and Nevada. Heatcharger won South Carolina signaling home region advantage. The two battled it out until the very end and it became clear that the winner would be Xingkěruì. But, the nominee decided to choose Heatcharger as his running mate to face the Republican opponents in the general election.

[Mr. Smith]

OneJ develops a minority and WWC coalition to take out establishment favorite heatcharger. While Iowa is narrowly won and NH is handily lost, the stride is hit in Nevada, and besides a Split South and a Mid-Atlantic-Ozark-Appalachia lockout...everything else goes in his favor.

[RFayette]

Democratic primary:

LD Smith does best out west and in socially conservative Appalachia, and with OneJ largely replicating the Clinton coalition.

OneJ wins 323 - 215 largely based on stronger performance with socially liberal northern rural Whites compared to HRC, despite home state bumps by LD Smith in VA and CA.

[heatcharger]

In a showdown of two scandal-free candidates from the most liberal state in the country, family values takes precedence in this election. RFayette positions himself as the candidate you'd want to get a beer with while MormDem focuses on bread-and-butter kitchen table issues while also trying to outflank RFayette on cultural conservatism. RFayette clearly has the advantage with those voters though.

MormDem recaptures much of the Midwest while RFayette runs up the score in the Bible Belt as he breaks through with black evangelicals by going on a church tour across the South, but MormDem runs a Western-centric campaign attempting to undercut the Republican firewall. Last minute Trafalgar polls come out showing MormDem leading in Alaska and Arizona, but the RFayette campaign doesn't believe it, instead, tries to shore up the bellwether states of Pennsylvania and Florida. Results start coming in, and MormDem runs far ahead of the normal Democrat out West, and although RFayette neutralizes the Democratic vote sink in California, RFayette becomes the first Republican to win the popular vote and lose the election.

Senator L.D. Smith (D-CA) / Governor Steve Bullock (D-MT) - 294 EV - 49.0%
Televangelist RFayette (R-CA) / Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) - 244 EV - 49.5%

[White Trash]

The Democratic Party doubles down on the Clinton strategy and nominates a third way centrist, Senator Heath Changer of Virginia. The senator runs on a platform of social liberalism and pragmatic, centrist economic planning.

Meanwhile, the Republicans give in to the demands of the social conservative wing and nominate former fire and brimstone preacher, Representative Robert Fayette of California.  The Representative's nomination brings the party platform a few steps to the left on economics and a leaps and bounds to the right on cultural and social issues.

Rep. Robert Fayette (R-CA)/Frmr. Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA)- 295 EV- 50.2%
Sen. Heath Changer (D-VA)/Frmr. HUD. Julian Castro (D-TX)- 243 EV- 46.3%

[Antonio the Sixth]

Heatcharger/RINO Tom (Democratic-Republican Party): 51.5%, 324 EV
Southern Gothic/Sanchez (United People's Party): 47.3%, 214 EV

[SUSAN CRUSHBONE]

with the only two significant candidates representing the left fringe and the right fringe of the democratic party, the 2020 primaries developed some interesting dynamics. most establishment figures and groups (the congressional black caucus, congressional leaders schumer and pelosi, former president obama, … the 'most' is not an exaggeration) not only refrained from endorsing either candidate, but floated the idea of a latecoming compromise candidate until well into the race (long after it stopped beïng at all feasible).

publicly, at least. but after rep. antonio's landslide win in the california primary (which, this year, occupied the fifth-earliëst slot in the calendar - after ia/nh/nv/sc and a week before super tuesday), money and experiënced operatives quiëtly began flooding in to sen. goth's campaign.

in the end, this substantial, but covert, support failed to overcome rep. antonio's hypermotivated support from the grassroots, protesters, etc, but the race remained close throughout, and online discussions on the race were apocalyptically vitriolic.

[Young Conservative]

TN Volunteers runs as a Republican; wins in landslide; NH smites him.

[heatcharger]

Senator TN Volunteer (R-MT) fuses the Ron Paul movement with the Trump coalition while also cutting into the evangelical base of the Republican Party, leaving Congressman Silent Cal (R-FL) with very little support outside of upscale Republicans, giving TNVol the nomination.

[Xing]

Heatcharger (D-VA) and Silent Cal (R-FL) end up in a hard-fought battle of ideologies. On election night, it ends up being, as expected, one of the closest races in U.S. history. While 14 states are decided by less than 5%, three states in particular remain too close to call well into the morning.

In the early hours of the morning, North Carolina is called for Silent Cal, with a margin of just 0.7%. About an hour after that, Wisconsin is called for Heatcharger, his margin being only 0.5%. That leaves Pennsylvania, where Heatcharger has a lead of just 1,600 votes. It remains uncalled for some time to come. As a batch of absentee ballots come in, Heatcharger's lead increases to 1,900, leading him to declare victory in the state, though Silent Cal insists that the race is not over, and that all votes must be counted. After all votes have been tallied, Heatcharger's lead shrinks back to about 1,700, leading Silent Cal to request a recount. About two weeks later, the recount is completed, and while Silent Cal gains several hundred votes from the recount, he remains more than 1,600 votes behind Heatcharger. As a result, Silent Cal concedes to Heatcharger, though the country remains intensely divided, with many conservatives protesting.

[Mr. Smith]

Governor Xing Kerui of Washington manages to get the Democratic nomination and faces Fmr. HHS Sec Rob Fayette of California . One of them runs a rather centrist campaign trying to tackle the Sunbelt, the other ran a "compassionate conservative" sort of campaign.

Most of the election was pretty straightforward (with the only notable exception being Alaska which Gov. Kerui worked absurdly hard on in the last week after Mr. Fayette let slip a gap about ending the Permanent Fund.), except for Pennsylvania and Nevada. The former was marred by controversy over "voter suppression" that may have artificially lowered the numbers of Rui voters in Philadelphia and Erie. It certainly didn't help that the pundits kept calling it back and forth towards Rui and Fayette as returns went westward.

As for Nevada, Clark went one way, the other counties went the other...except for Washoe, where a casino worker's strike in Reno lowered turnout and caused general chaos in the polls.

Nothing budged for a week. But then finally, by 6,000 votes Nevada was called for Governor Kerui. But Pennsylvania was not to be so simple. Courts argued and argued for a good month. Ultimately it took The House to decide, and they gave it to Mr. Fayette, thus giving him the Presidency.
