I think your Electoral Map might be outdated. The combination of NY, PA, IL, MI, and NJ have lost a total of 6 votes with 4 of those moving to Texas. In 2016, the country will be coming off eight years of a failed presidency. A democrat victory is not inevitable, unless the republican party again enters the general election hopelessly divided.
” unless the republican party again enters the general election hopelessly divided.”
They can’t shoot each other in the primaries, either.
