Going all in.

I'm guessing the media blitz and one of the ongoing criminal investigations will reveal something so odious that Trump is forcibly removed from the campaign, one way or another. Third party voters will try and fail too get enough leeway to get an EV in one of the split states.

So just as a reminder, feeling pretty good about this right now.

I honestly think that there are several states that would select Johnson before Hillary. Utah, for example.

Utah is actually a four-way race between Trump, Clinton, Johnson, and Mormon protest candidate Evan McMullin. That article links to this amazing poll from August of likely voters in Utah.

Trump: 37%
Clinton: 25%
Johnson: 16%
Other: 14%
Don't Know: 7%

There is absolutely a world in which the conservative vote is so split that Clinton wins Utah.

Edit: Utah House Rep Jason Chaffetz, Utah Senator Mike Lee, Romney, Utah Governor Gary Herbert, and Jon Huntsman have all punched out on Trump.

I'm super excited to see how Utah pans out this year. The real possibility that known idiot Gary Johnson gets electoral votes is just too funny.

blackmet: Aug 5, 2006; I believe there is a universal Truth to the process of doing things right (Not that I have any idea what that actually means).

Here's me trying to do something unique but also semi logical...

Basically, I've decided Trump's pussy comments pretty much tank him everywhere that's anything smaller than R+10. This includes GA, AZ, NE-2, MO, IA, and even AK (recent poll only shows him up +3 there).

Utah goes Johnson. Mormon voters, having had enough of Trump, break away from him in droves, and he comes in 3rd there. Johnson wins, but it's something like:
Johnson: 35
Hillary: 34
Trump: 20
McMuffin: 10
Everyone else: 1

I considered giving Johnson NM too as he was a fairly popular former governor there, but they're a bit more liberal and a lot more minority, so Hillary wins, but he actually beats Trump by a point or two. It ends up reading something like:

Hillary: 50
Johnson: 25
Trump: 24
Everyone else: 1

EDIT: I just realized 388 EV's is what Pinterest Mom gave to Hillary. Don't want to match her exactly, so I give ME-2 to Trump. It could still happen.

I think the rule is that your map can't match someone, but that you can have the same electoral vote count. Otherwise the tie-breaking rules don't really make sense.

ok here is my "total trump collapse" map.

premise: trump does something somehow worse than what he's already done that alienates not only the entire GOP leadership, but the actual conservative base. most GOP leaders pull endorsements (including mike pence who resigns from ticket) and many even endorse Gary Johnson. only the hardest core trumpers stick with him, with almost all western conservatives going to gary and the rest of the GOP split pretty evenly giving many otherwise deep red states to the dems

this isn't my Official Guess just me being a nerd

Already halfway there, crossing my fingers that it comes true this weekend.

It's been a good couple of weeks, so I'm going to post my most optimistic projection.
