Such a testament to how unrepresentative the EC is. Look at that popular vote pie graph and compare it to the EC pie graph. Reagan still wins, but half the country voted for someone else (and it is accepted that Anderson split the left vote and probably cost Carter the election).
I’d like if we saw more elections like this, instead of most states just being forgone conclusions because of strict party-line voting.
the bad ending
It only shows the United States need to get rid of the fucking electoral vote system.
Anderson seems fairly under-discussed in U.S. political discourse compared to other notable 3rd-party and independent candidates (Roosevelt, Thurmond, Wallace, Perot, Nader, etc) – wonder why that is? Is it just that Liberal Republicans aren’t a relevant political faction anymore?
The beginning of the end.
Shows the power of the 3rd party candidate.
This is the election where the country started down a path that’s led us to the shit we’re in down. Reagan fucked over middle class America by initiating one the greatest robberies of the American people in history.
Are we just gonna do every electoral US map? How is this map porn exactly?
Carter won West Virginia but not Massachusetts.
Wow
What a hammering
Seriously guys electoral college sucks
In 2924, when they don’t want **the media** to interfere with government, they elect a media personality and his social media clown.
That’s what you get when you run a guy from the TV. A popular candidate who will endorse anything he’s paid to. Reagan started us on this ride of privatization and gutting every last social program and Trump will certainly finish the job.
Man they HATED Jimmy Carter
Minnesota always knew…
This is where everything went wrong
Amazing that Reagan was popular.
If an election wouid have been held on Reddit, Reagan would lose 99% – 1%. 😉
Then 1 year later the highest unemployment rate since the Great Depression. Go figure.
Quality post OP
what percent of the adult population was 80.5 million? a lot of the comments so far are only about the people who voted
Republicans making sneaky deals with foreign governments to influence elections
Nothing changes does it
Minnesota has had their shit together for a while now
NY had almost as many EC votes as CA!
These state maps are really shitty maps for telling you what an electorate is thinking
Sad.
In 84 it was just Minnesota.
Beautiful
Cypher. His free name was Cypher. Reagan was his name in The Matrix. He wanted to forget the real world.
