Recommended Posts

D = Democratic

R = Republican

I = Independent

L = Libertarian

C = Constitution

G = Green

I excluded Alaska 2014 because it was already covered.

I went with the major nominee that was more socially liberal than the other major party nominee. As such, I voted Independent several times, Libertarian once, Republican once, mainly because there was no Democrat of equivalent strength, which is fine. It would be great if the national election had a LW independent polling within earshot of 270 EVs.
