While we're on the subject of the general election. I reworked the electoral college math. I'm convinced that placing Bernie Sanders at the top of the ticket would cost the Democrats at least 70 electoral college votes surrendering the White House to the GOP and keeping the Senate out of the hands of the Democrats in the process. With Sanders at the top, the GOP will pick up FL, VA, WI, and either OH or PA at the electoral college level. In 2012, Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan garnered 206 electoral votes. If Cruz/Kasich can flip FL, VA, WI, and either OH or PA they pick up at least 70 electors giving their team a grand total of 276 for the win. Other than FL, those were the states that Obama/Biden lost last go around after the enactment of ACA.
Edited: Obama/Biden got the FL delegate votes in 2012.
