Make a map of the above four posters as separate candidates

[Leinad]

(Why did Clark skip me? No big deal, but I think I had a good chance in that one! )

Fairly moderate Ohio Senator Robert Pryor won the Republican nomination, but was challenged by the slightly more conservative Connecticut Governor Clark Kent. Many conservatives voted for Kent, but many others voted for Pryor due to a bizarre medical condition where they're unable to vote for anyone without an "R" next to their name.

Meanwhile, Washington Governor Timothy Charles Crumpet won the primaries, but runner-up L.D. Smith decided to form a third-party--the Communitarian Party--in protest of some of the Democrats' left-leaning views on social issues.

Kent is too ideologically similar to drag enough votes away from Pryor, simply splitting votes in most places, while Crumpet is able to get a large enough share of the left-of-center vote to win, despite finishing last, behind Smith, in many southern states.

Sen. Robert Pryor (R-OH)/Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) PV: 29% EV: 205
Gov. T.C. Crumpet (D-WA)/Sec. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) PV: 34% EV: 320
Gov. Clark Kent (I-CT)/Gov. Scott Walker (I-WI) PV: 20% EV: 0
Sen. Lewis David Smith (C-VA)/Sen. Bob Casey Jr. (C-PA) PV: 15% EV: 13

Louis Dalrymple Smith (D-VA)
Radderford Pryor (R-OH)
Clark Kent (I-CT)
Daniel Leinad (L-GA)

After a major split in the GOP, Clark Kent decides to run as a John Anderson-esque Independent candidate. He does well for an Independent, winning his home state of Connecticut, as well as the elastic northeastern states of Vermont and New Hampshire after campaigning a message of change and non-corruption compared to the establishment backings of Smith and Pryor. He also surprisingly wins Florida due to the other candidates splitting the vote.

However, he does cause a major divide in the GOP vote itself (with Kent taking the moderates and Pryor taking the conservatives), letting Smith easily win most states. Pryor only wins the most conservative states, as well as many in the northwest due to Leinad's libertarianism subtracting votes from the other candidates.

Leinad also does very well, winning one of Maine's congressional districts, North Dakota, and Alaska.

a close-fought election is transformed into an electoral nightmare by the comparatively strong campaigns of leinad (who focuses his entire campaign on montana and wyoming) and darren medved (who scrapes over 30% and second place in the upper new england states). after hundreds of ballots, and several weeks of acting president mazie hirono, leinad brokers a deal with sen. pryor in exchange for some platform changes and a cabinet position. this election generates widespread support for the abolition of the electoral college.

gov. lemuel d. smith (d-va)/sen. mazie hirono (d-hi) - 45.5%, 269 ev
sen. roland pryor iii (r-oh)/gov. brian sandoval (r-nv) - 48.0%, 265 ev
rep. darren medved (i-nc)/musician jello biafra (g-ca) - 4.5%, 1 ev
fmr. gov. daniel leinad (l-ga)/fmr. gov. jesse ventura (i-mn) - 1.8%, 3 ev

[NeverAgain]

Gov. Robert Pryor - (R - OH)/Sen. Marco Rubio (R - FL)- 272 EV/47.9 PV
Sen. Darrell Bearenthal (D - NC)/Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D - MA) - 257 EV/45.2 PV
Gov. Daniel Leinad (L - GA)/Gov. Gary Johnson (L - NM) - 6 EV/ - 6 EV/6.1 PV
Rep. Jane Evergreen - (I - ME)/Mrs. Roseanne Barr (I - CA) - 3 EV/2.6 PV

I'd suggest for the following poster to do a Dem Primary Map possibly as you have 3 leftys and then Leinad.

[RFayette]

Leinad (R-GA)/Rand Paul - 283
Evergreen (I)/Russ Feingold - 21
darthebearnc (Socialist)/Kay Hagan - 15
NeverAgain (D-VA)/Al Franken - 219

With a split Democratic field, libertarian-turned Republican Leinad glides to a relatively easy victory.  Evergreen carries Wisconsin, New Hampshire, and Vermont thanks to Russ Feingold's campaigning with Bernie Sanders on behalf of the campaign (Leinad toned down his libertarianism to help win Southern states).  Darthebear could not gain appeal beyond North Carolina, but he also siphoned votes from NeverAgain, helping Leinad win despite his numerous vulnerabilities (flip-flopping, most notably).

[Leinad]

RFayette wins both the conservative and moderate vote, while the left-wing vote is split 3 ways.

Total landslide.

Rep. Robert Fayette (R-CA)/Gov. John Kasich (R-OH) - 528 EVs
Rep. Darren Barrett (D-NC)/Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) - 3 EVs
Sen. Ned Verigan (I-VA)/Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) - 3 EVs
Rep. Lois Neergreve (G-ME)/Dr. Jill Stein (G-MA) - 4 EVs

[Clark Kent]

I'd expect them to lose Vermont in that case, too.

SKIP

[Leinad]

I'd expect them to lose Vermont in that case, too.

It was close. President Fayette didn't complain, though.

=SKIP=

[Goldwater]

NeverAgain (D-VA) - 296 EVs
RFayette (R-IA) - 242 EVs

Basically, I'm thinking that Leinad would do well enough in the mountain west for NeverAgain to win some states there, well Evergreen only sees success in Democratic stronghold states that RFayette is unable to win despite vote splitting.

[Leinad]

Awesome to see this start back!

[Clark Kent]

NeverAgain (D-VA) - 45.4%, 430 EVs
Goldwater (R-WA) - 37.3%, 90 EVs
RFayette (I-IA) - 12.2%, 18 EVs
Leinad (L-GA) - 5.1%, 0 EVs


What I see happening is Goldwater somehow winning the GOP nomination, prompting RFayette to go third party with the more paleocon elements of the GOP. Leinad does surprisingly well, but only cuts into Goldwater's base. NeverAgain wins in an electoral landslide despite being nearly 5% short of a majority of the popular vote.

republican primary, 2016

the map after super tuesday:

clark kent (senator from connecticut)
barry goldwater (representative from washington)
daniel leinad (representative from georgia)
reginald fayette (governor of iowa)

at this point, rep. goldwater, who was counting on wins in at least one of oklahoma, texas, and vermont, drops out and throws his support to rep. leinad.

the race after today's primaries:

the race remains up in the air until rep. leinad scrapes a bare victory in winner-take-most california, which gives him a moderate lead in the delegate count. sen. kent agrees to be leinad's vice president in order to avoid a brokered convention.

[Goldwater]

Evergreen (D-MN) - 460 EVs
Clark Kent (R-CT) - 68 EVs
Leinad (L-GA) - 6 EVs
Goldwater (I-ID) - 4 EVs

Vote splitting, vote splitting everywhere.

2020 Presidential Election

Background: After the disastrous nomination of Donald Trump, where he lost to previously nearly-unheard-of left-wing Representative Eve R. Green (who herself was selected at a brokered Democratic convention by the Chafee delegates as a younger female equivalent to Bernie Sanders, who was slightly ahead of Hillary Clinton on raw delegates), the Republican Party was a mess. They couldn't unite on a candidate throughout the primaries, thus leading to an 1836-style election where they ran three candidates: conservative California Rep. with a populist flare Art Fayette in the conservative South and Midwest, Washington Senator Gary Goldwater, domestically libertarian but vowing to "take the fight to ISIS!" after what Republicans deemed as lack of decisive action on the part of President Green, running in the West, and socially moderate Connecticut Governor Clark Kent running in the Northeast.

Pres. Eve R. Green - 269 EVs - 45.3%
Rep. Art Fayette - 126 EVs - 19.4%
Sen. Gary Goldwater - 101 EVs - 16.3%
Gov. Clark Kent - 42 EVs - 10.5%
Kanye West - 0 EVs - 7.2%
Others - 0 EVs - 1.3%

While the Republicans are hurt by the simple fact they're doing this scheme, and the total lack of party unity, President Green is hurt by an independent run by Kanye West, and being forced to campaign in unexpectedly close Maine, Connecticut, and Washington. This keeps her from taking North Carolina, Georgia, and Iowa from Fayette, who was himself hurt by flip-flopping.

In the end, the Republican-controlled house chose Governor Kent, while the Democrat-controlled Senate chose Green's Vice President, former Senator and Governor Lincoln Chafee (who, as was mentioned before, held the balance of power in the 2016 convention in this absurd parallel universe).

1924 Presidential Election

Then President Kingolopen (R-NJ), is a moderate candidate, VP of Harding, is campaigning of the continuation of stability, and a moderate, well-tested government, with tax cuts and isolationism, he manages to break the solid south, due to the anti-mormon bigotry.

Senator Lauke Dave (L.D) Smith (D-UT), runs a populist campaign, with fierce endorsement of William Jennings Bryan, of free silver, bimetallism, the continuation of prohibition, labor laws, government assistance to farmers, and moderate progressive reforms, such as a 40-hour work week. 

Representative Antonio Villos (S-CA), from an immigrant Italian-French family, he campaigns on immigrants rights, the easing of immigration laws, protection of workers, both immigrant or not. He campaigns on social security, and other major reformist goals, for his ideology of social democracy, bringing the socialist party into a more moderate direction.

Local Councillor Azola Illayan (P-WA), a progressive he runs as in opposition to the radical Antonio Villios, campaigning on direct democracy, referendums, and giving power to the people. He campaigns against government bureaucracy, government corruption, running a campaign against the corrupt government and big business.

Kinglopeon (R-NJ): 33.2% (249 EV)
Luke Dave (D-UT): 30.1% (159EV)
Antonio Villios (S-CA): 20.2% (81 EV)
Azola Illayan (P-WA): 15.8% (42EV)

Intell (I-HI)/Jon Huntsman (I-UT) 51 EVs
Kingpoleon (I-NJ)/Rick Perry (I-TX) 105 EVs

With the republican party having an unconventional nominee, Intell and Kingpoleon enter the race hoping to oppose him. The 3 moderates split those votes, but it heads to the House.

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

President Leon P. O'King (R-NJ) - 253
Governor Louis "The Life" Rock (D-NY) - 269
Congressman Elvin Aziz (I-WA) - 12
Senator Ian Tell (I-HI) - 4
A relatively unpopular President O'King caused liberal Governor Rock to rise in the polls, but favorite-son campaigns by Aziz and Tell prevented Rock from getting 270 electoral votes, handing the election to O'King in the Republican-dominated Congress.

Why would I have right-winger Walter Jones as my VP???

SKIP.

He supports universal healthcare, major campaign finance reform, and is generally pretty left-populist/moderate economically. On social issues, I don't think he's much different from you. Have you looked up his record on the issues?
