So this idea just popped in my head because I was playing a election sim of 48 and it ended up 247 Truman , 246 Dewey and Strom got his 38.

So what happens if Dewey wins all the states he won OTL but also picks up California,Nevada ,Idaho and Ohio. which to me none of those states are that far out of line for him to win. Ohio would just need Taft doing a bit more. The three western states beside the fact the Earl Warren was Dewey's VP were relative close.

So would Truman and Dewey broker a deal? Where Truman stayed President and Dewey became VP or would something else happen?
