Is it wrong to see it as hopeful that the trend has been on the upswing for the R’s?
’92 = 168 ’96 = 159 ’00 = 271 ’04 = 286
Also, I’m curious as to the effect Perot had on the Electoral votes in ’92 and ’96. Is there a simple analysis of how much he took from Bush and Dole?
Just asking... |

Probably. When you extend the time back to the 1980s, you see massive landslides for Reagan and Bush I. What we’ve really seen is the Democratic votes solidify in the northeast an far west, to the point where there are about 248 solid Democratic electoral votes.
Moreover, Ohio, Florida, Virginia, and Nevada are getting increasingly purple. |
