Land of Lincoln...the prairie state...corn, soybeans, and pumpkins. Chicago-inclusive, but there's a lot more to Illinois than just the Windy City.

Be respectful and civil. No racism/bigotry/hateful speech.

The most interesting removal so far is Maine, since Trump won one electoral vote there from the 2nd district. If it only happens in blue states, it probably doesn't meaningfully affect his chances.

He'd need to be off the ballot in 270 EV worth of states to mathematically be unable to win. That would be very, very exceptional circumstances.
