Nixon's path to victory, assuming that conspiracy theories regarding Illinois and Texas are correct, and Henry Irwin opts not to send the election to a Democratic House*:



Richard Nixon 50.4% 270
John Kennedy 48.9% 253
Harry Byrd 14

*Although Congress at the time consisted of 17 Republican delegations, 17 Democratic delegations (counting Missouri and Kentucky), and 12 Dixiecratic delegations (although Johnson could likely manipulate the Texas delegation to support Kennedy). In any case, Irwin's sway could be eliminated by giving Michigan to Nixon, requiring an additional 0.4% national swing.

Reagan 1980 vs Romney 2012

(>30% corresponds to less than 3.6%, which is the difference between Reagan's percentage and Romney's percentage. All other shades are increments of 5%)

The same map, but this time comparing their performance with white voters:

Bush 2004 (48.5%) vs Obama 2012 (51.5%)

The closest states are Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania. Interestingly, Obama wins North Carolina by a greater margin than Michigan, and Virginia and Colorado by larger margins than Oregon and Minnesota.

2014 Republican gubernatorial candidates vs 2006 Democratic gubernatorial candidates

So about Walker, Rauner, LePage, and Scott only winning from low turnout...

Best-case scenario for Republicans 2016:

Assuming:
  • Black turnout drops to 2004 levels
  • Walker outperforms Romney with whites and blacks to the same extent he did in 2014 and 2012
  • The Asian vote looks more like 2004 than 2008/2012
  • No change in either Hispanic vote breakdown or growth rate



Walker 51.7% 348
Clinton 46.4% 190
