As the dust settles on an acrimonious OTL 2020 US presidential election, let us perhaps be reminded that this very same race of Donald Trump versus Joe Biden very easily could have happened many years ago. Joe Biden launched his first, unsuccessful run for the Democratic presidential nomination...

One of my best Hillary wins yet, almost recreating the Obama 2012 map (minus Iowa). https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1575939

1. The main four states to focus on are Florida (that's the big one), Ohio, Missouri, and Tennessee. A few visits to Iowa and Wisconsin don't hurt, either. 2. Bob Graham is probably the ideal running mate, particularly to help you get Florida. 3. Praise Clinton extensively and at every...

I’m mainly surprised that 1912 wasn’t listed on there. That could be a scenario to play around with, whether with OTL with Teddy running as a Bull Moose and you could possibly win the election as his third party run, or with an ATL scenario where he wrested the Republican nomination from Taft...

One of my strongest Dukakis victories in a while: https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1549932

Here’s my best Hillary victory so far in the updated scenario. Almost recreated the Obama 2012 map, except I traded Iowa for North Carolina. https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1532282

An even better result than my last playthrough as the Hillary/Bernie Connection. In most victories, I only ever flip Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin from OTL, but here I managed to get Ohio too. https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1528369 Conversely, here’s an example...

They added an updated 2016 which is more accurate with what actually happened OTL (rather than conjecture from how they thought things might go in March 2016).

Managed to barely pull off victory as the Hillary-Bernie connection. https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1501169

Won a more solid Trump victory than OTL: an actual popular vote victory, and in addition to OTL’s map, picked up Minnesota and Nevada. https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1492823

Ooooooooooh crap. TIED updated 2016 with Hillary winning the popular vote by 3 million, but the Republican Congress electing Trump... https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1490461

Holy crap, just noticed the revised 2016 this game put out! Managed to pull it off as Hillary with Sherrod Brown: https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1486508

Welcome to the board! On this topic, let me introduce you to a classic timeline from this site, and one of my personal favorites: Zhirinovsky’s Russian Empire. Through a series of twists, Boris Yeltsin is gunned down in the midst of the August 1991 coup, while OTL National Troll Vladimir...

This here is probably the one. You can read it online, starting here on this page: http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.02.0026%3Abook%3D9%3Achapter%3D17

A landslide 1968 Nixon victory. https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1408860

France in TL-191. They basically endure an OTL China-esque Century of Humiliation from the mid 19th Century through the mid-20th Century. Three humiliating defeats in war at the hands of Germany across three generations. The decimation of their population in the First Great War. They...

The humiliation of Thomas Dewey: https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1326159

Just topped my prior Bryan-slide. Before, I had swept almost all the Upper Midwest, including Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Illinois, and Michigan, leaving only Minnesota and Wisconsin in the Republican column. This time around, I managed to nab Minnesota as well. Wisconsin is a tough nut to crack...

Won a massive 1968 Nixon-slide. Humphrey is relegated to winning only two more electoral votes than Wallace. https://www.americanhistoryusa.com/campaign-trail/game/1219828
