We're at the last one because they've removed all the others.
That's literally not true. The current administration is in power because 86 million eligible people didn't bother to vote.
If "Did Not Vote" had been a candidate:
I'd be interested in an interactive version of this where you could assign a percentage of those votes to the person who lost the state as a naive proxy for "what would have happened if the people who thought their vote didn't matter because [D|R] would win anyway". I know it wouldn't be an actual measure but it'd be fun to mess with anyway.
In particular I find it kinda interesting that CA and TX are both didn't vote and both historically considered "easy wins".
This image is just generally interesting because it also turns the idea of swing states around a bit. If neither candidate motivated enough people in all of those states could we consider them swing states?
The only difference is that the Democrats wouldn't be threatening to end the civilization. AIPAC and thus Israel has our country by the proverbial testicles.
