I'd think Sanders would win WV, especially given how unpopular Obama is there.

I'm not sure how popular Hillary is in WV in comparison to Obama or Biden, but she beat Sanders there in a primaries.

Presumptive Democratic Nominee Bernie Sanders met with President Barack Obama at the White House following Biden's suspension from the race. They apparently discussed "the future of the Democratic Party." Although, no public statement has been released about the meeting.

Collins\Sandoval or Collins\Huntsman! I'd enthusiastically endorse these tickets. If Rubio, Bush or, god forbid, Cruz are on the ticket, I'd reluctantly support Sanders. With Kasich or Heller I'd be a swing voter.

This, basically, except I could get behind Collins/Rubio.

I'd think a easy to comfortable Sanders win due to Republican vote splitting.

Just initial backlash from late campaigns and early polling. June/July polling of the OTL 2016 election had Maine AL toss up but Maine 1 and 2 likely Clinton. Some early polls also had Nebraska as solid blue which obviously wasn't going to happen.

July 12th, 2016
Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz to stay in senate, Jon Hunstman Jr. to negotiate “another” White House role.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Florida Senator Marco Rubio made a dual speech today, disowning any chance of a Collins/Cruz or Collins/Rubio ticket. Both senators declared that they would remain in the senate and push a “conservative” agenda no matter who wins the upcoming election. Many reports also claim slight distaste over the “Stop Collins” movement may have lead to disagreements between Susan Collins and her two main opponents in the Republican primaries. Nonetheless, a clear alliance between Rubio/Cruz is showing to last.

 
Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman Jr. told a reporter today that he won’t be seen on the ballot this November. He stated that he’s pursuing “another” role in a Collins Administration.

July 15th, 2016
Ahead of the Republican National Convention, Nominee Susan Collins picks Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval as VP.

At a rally in Flint, Michigan, presumptive nominee Susan Collins announced, days prior to the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio, that Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval will appear alongside her on the Republican ballot this November.

Elected in 2011, Sandoval is the 29th and current governor of Nevada. The 2016 Republican ticket will surely be historic, as former Secretary of State Susan Collins will be the first female to lead a major political party ticket, and Governor Brian Sandoval will be the first Latino to appear on major political party ticket. While a clear appeal to minorities, this VP picked was approved by a majority of Republicans. Former President George W. Bush released a short statement, saying it "was about time" a Latino got representation on a presidential ticket. Former Vice President John McCain tweeted, saying Sandoval will make an amazing Vice President, and that he was a great choice for the job. From the swing state of Nevada, Sandoval will help deliver the silver state to the Republican Party.
