Kennedy (red) vs. Carter (green):



Jimmy wins by a single electoral vote in 1960.

Hoover (blue) vs. Reagan (green):



Reagan wins rather comfortably in 1928 numbers.

Coolidge (blue) vs. Obama (red):



Based on 1924, Obama wins in a squeaker.

This reflects Coolidge's bad performance being weaker than Obama's bad performance. Obviously, if Obama was somehow nominated in 1924 he'd lose by comical margins there.

Oh, I didn't realize these were based on actual numbers.  I figured it was all just speculative.

Yup. Basically, you take whoever got a larger percentage of the vote in the state.
