got no electoral majority as humphrey, probably not a great outcome

symsymsym, Wednesday, 12 February 2020 05:01 (four years ago) link

Candidate Electoral Votes Popular Votes Popular Vote %

I leaked that Nixon sabotaged the peace talks, and that put me over the finish line. I felt conflicted about choosing Kennedy as my running mate, but figured that likely changed history to prevent Mary Jo Kopechne's death, so was mollified.

kicked Kennedy's assssss

--- Al Gore 349 54,998,168 51.9%
---- George W. Bush 189 50,618,403 47.8%
---- Pat Buchanan 0 277,366 0.3%
---- Ralph Nader 0 0 0.0%

I was Dukakis. I ran with John Glenn. I lost worse than Dukakis.

I find this really hard to believe!

Οὖτις, Thursday, 13 February 2020 16:07 (four years ago) link

There must be a glitch people can exploit cos it def seems to be the buggiest election. Nader kept getting 0 votes yesterday and when i looked at the stats panel the formatting is off.

It said 1% of Nader voters had won and somehow someone achieved all 538 EVs which hasn't happened on like any other election

sorry for butt rockin (Neanderthal), Thursday, 13 February 2020 16:10 (four years ago) link

there's gotta be some cheat

Οὖτις, Thursday, 13 February 2020 16:34 (four years ago) link

I am determined to win as Dukakis... so far no dice

justice 4 CCR (Sparkle Motion), Thursday, 13 February 2020 18:32 (four years ago) link

I finally edged out GHWB by less than 1% to keep 1000 points of light from ever shining.

justice 4 CCR (Sparkle Motion), Thursday, 13 February 2020 20:50 (four years ago) link

what was your strategy?

Οὖτις, Thursday, 13 February 2020 20:51 (four years ago) link

the combo that finally worked was using Gore & going relentlessly negative at nearly every opportunity. I concentrated mainly on visiting Texas, Missouri, Ohio & Michigan. Of the 4 I only won Michigan but that plus the coasts was enough to eke out electoral victory.

justice 4 CCR (Sparkle Motion), Thursday, 13 February 2020 20:57 (four years ago) link

Won in 2000 with Gore/Kerry 307-231. Kerry peeled off lefter leaning voters, I went hard on the “hold your nose” vote, CLIMATE CHANGE. Florida was solid blue.

Won in 2016 with Clinton/Warren 338-200. Lots of class politics (lol), getting Obama to help gtvo, and I won fucking Utah and Nevada.

hyds (gyac), Sunday, 16 February 2020 10:11 (four years ago) link

Balls, pressed post before I could finish. Still can’t win with Dukakis but my highest was around 230 EC votes - which I thought was awful until I saw how many he got irl.

hyds (gyac), Sunday, 16 February 2020 10:12 (four years ago) link

Just won as Hillary, with Booker as running mate; brought Sanders out as much as possible while staying moderate/vague on most issues and going negative on Trump.

With considerable charm, you still have made a choice (Sund4r), Monday, 17 February 2020 15:11 (four years ago) link

Also I spent a lot of time in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.

justice 4 CCR (Sparkle Motion), Monday, 17 February 2020 19:16 (four years ago) link

Yeah, I did that the first time and lost big.
