2016 hypothetical: LePage v. McCaskill

[tmthforu94]

People seem to be forgetting they're making maps based off the scenario:

With LePage up by 5 on Election, he'd widely be considered the favorite to win, so would probably win a majority of Independents. Somewhat of an electoral realignment. McCaskill may be from a Southern state, but that doesn't mean she'd do well in the South, especially when voters see her socially liberal record.

Map on Election Day:

Results:

LePage: 326 EV's
McCaskill: 212 EV's

Explanation: McCaskill isn't extremely popular in Missouri, and especially in a Republican year, it'll be very hard for her to win this state. I have McCaskill winning Iowa because I think it'd be a key focus from her campaign in the primaries, while LePage would probably skip Iowa and focus on New Hampshire.

This was pretty neat, Misoir. Haven't really seen any with either of these two running. One suggestion I'd make - in future hypotheticals, include who the candidates' choose for their Veep. Makes it easier to do.

Also, typically, something like this would usually be posted in this board:
