If he loses Arizona - which looks >50% right now - he's losing.  Period.

If you change OH to blue and NM and CO to red on your map, you’ll get what many posters here unironically believe is his path of least resistance, lol.

2. The Wisconsin Route (270)



3. The Wisconsin + Pennsylvania Route (273)

Yep, this is it. The most likely tipping point states are Wisconsin and Arizona.

Pennsylvania is also fairly likely because it has 20 EVs.

Pretty much. It's gonna have to be through the Midwest again because I don't see anywhere else where he can make up for it.

I wouldn’t discount the possibility of Michigan voting to the right of Wisconsin.

FL + NC + PA + AZ puts him at 280

I'm assuming IA, OH, GA, and ME-02 start out as at least "Likely Trump"

Please, people. North Carolina will not vote to the left of Florida or Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania's urban and suburban centers are much stronger than Wisconsin's, so I think it's safer for the Democrat.

Replicating his 2016 map, with the possibility of flipping New Hampshire. That's probably about as good as it can get for him, not that it matters, because he still would have won.

Winning two of AZ, MI, and WI, since I think PA is the most likely to flip.

Very plausible.  While less likely, I also think the possibility of Florida voting to the right of at least one of NC and GA is very underrated.

Safe-er, but not safe. Trump has been much better for the PA economy than for WI. Steel tariffs have helped PA, while Trump's trade war has harmed Harley-Davidson, and the Foxconn scam is turning off a lot of the WCW voters.

WI is more likely than PA to go to Trump, but PA as a tipping point is still not all that unlikely.

 GOP has good ground game and voter turnout in Wisconsin and Florida that make these tossup states states advantageous R. Democrats have to overcome this with a surge of infrequent voters.

 Democrats might still be a few cycles away from Arizona and Georgia. Democrats should also solidify Nevada and Colorado and build on strengths there.
