Alternate Electoral Maps

So I decided to jump into doing the reversed elections that others were doing, but I decided to do my own little spin on it. In an effort to calculate the most accurate "reversion" possible I multiplied each State-by-State result by the proposed change in the national total, thereby determining how many votes would either be 'shed' or 'gained' by the two sides in each individual State. In those cases where the calculations showed both (i.e. when both candidates were under 40% in a State) then a picked the lesser one, so as to not create "phantom voters". The end result will always be smaller than the proposed change because of this, but I'd argue it is far more accurate than the uniform slides others often do.

I have the calculations themselves here in a bunch of Google Docs files for anyone interested.

I think Polk should be 46% instead of 56%.
 
Here's some supplemental material from the ongoing 1776 map game. Made by HowAboutThisForAName, PiratePartyist, and myself.

List of Executive Officers of the Democratic Federation of Paneurasia:

1923-1930: Vladimir V Romanov (initially independent, then People's Party)
1930-1934: Levan Dzugashvili (People's Party)

(Romanov assassinated in 1930; Dzugashvili/Andropov elected later that year. Major defections from People's Party to Liberal Party presumably occur c. 1934.)
1934-1936: Levan Dzugashvili (Liberal Party)
(Dzugashvili/Andropov reelected in 1935. Liberal Party splits into Liberal and National parties in 1936.)
1936-1940: Levan Dzugashvili (National Party)
(Dzugashvili/Andropov reelected in 1940; the former soon dies)
1940-1945: Timofey Andropov (Liberal Party)
(1945 election: Muduri Duneheng (People's Party) defeated Timofey Andropov (Liberal), Krastyo Kovalchuk (Latitudinarian), and Gennadi Sokolov (Conservative).
1945-????: Muduri Duneheng (People's Party)

Here is a primary consisting of all four nominees since 2000, I combined McCain and Romney's multiple runs.

John McCain - 28.23% (697)
Mitt Romney - 26.06% (647)
Donald Trump - 24.69% (637)
George W. Bush - 21.02% (350)

So, who does the RNC pick now?

Trump somehow wins my state here but gets trounced in real life? Alright then

Ronald Reagan's "Moral Majority Coalition"
National Reform Party - 1981-1989: The dominant conservative party, it has shrunk from 1972 thanks to splits.
Christian Democrats - 1981-1989: The Southern-regional rightists that distrusted President Carter and the New Democrats.
Libertarian Party - 1981-1989: Back in the game, and this time has a President more open to their ideas.
Faith and Family - 1981-1989: The really extreme Christian right. Has some influence in the Cabinet...
Ordinary People - 1981-1987: The hardline "Nixonites" who distrusted Reagan, but backed him anyway. Collapsed in 1987.
Liberal Party - 1984-1985: The "Fordite" liberals who backed Anderson, and Reagan only in 1984, left shortly after.

IMO West Virginia should be progressive labor in 1980.

Edit: ninja'd!

Double edit: they should also be reform in 1984; WV isn't nearly as evangelical as people think.

Christian Democrats, despite their name, are supposed to represent Southern ex-Democrats, they're the right-wing split of the Democrats. Contrast them with the NDP.

The Christian Right is mainly Faith and Family.

Great job! Please do 1988, 1992, and 1996!
 
I'd also question calling the Plains states Libertarian rather than National Reform, and both Iowa and Missouri might fit better as one of the religious-themed parties what with the heavy number of evangelicals (I would at least not call subsidy-loving Iowa Libertarian either) but I don't have any other disagreements.

That's a valid criticism. I'll look into revising 1980 and 1984. For Missouri, keep in mind that there's a good chunk of people who just don't get fusion voting and just vote for the "party that can win" i.e. National Reform.

I was planning on doing 1992 as well, but I should revise 1980 and 1984 [and 1988, I suppose] before I start on the 1990s.

EDIT: Revised 1988, now to do 1980 and 1984.
