Yes, I actually expect the House to flip to majority Democratic. But in the scenario where no presidential candidate gets 270 and the vote is thrown to the House, the delegation from each state gets one vote and the Republicans have more states.
How long has it been since a 3rd party candidate actually won a state?
George Wallace in 1968. He won 5 states and 46 electoral college votes. Nixon still carried 301 EC votes to win the Presidency outright, while Humphrey had 191.
Perot didn’t win any states in 1992
Correct. Perot secured 19% of the total vote running against the political powerhouses Clinton and GHWB. Imagine what a viable 3rd party candidate could do against the elderly and unpopular Trump and Biden.
Can't imagine third party winning a single state.
Someone has to win them.
Third party candidates do not win states. Not for many decades. What state will elect and third party candidate and who?
The 2024 election is different from any past presidential election in modern times. We've never had two presumed to be well in advance nominees as unpopular as Trump and Biden. If Ross Perot can garner 19% of the total votes running against studs like Clinton and Bush, imagine what a more qualified and more well known candidate than Perot could do against Trump and Biden.

Anonymous wrote:, No Labels officials floated the possibility of forming a “coalition government” with one of the major parties in the event that no candidate for president receives 270 electoral votes.
Put that way, it sounds relatively benign. It is, however, anything but. No Labels chief strategist Ryan Clancy explicitly mentioned, according to NBC News’s account, the possibility that the election could be tossed to the House of Representatives, where deals could be cut to determine a winner. This has happened before.
