Japanese BC? I really like it

Honestly the Frank Church stuff was a mistake, I discovered Hayakawa and thought that was a good person to hop onto! As for Hawaii, It was relatively untouched as Japan, the entity, didn't really colonize since when Kyoku was found and settled it was in its isolated period. The people who settled Kyoku where funded by interested nobles and merchants rather than the Japanese state of the time!RNDP
I find the astronaut nomenklatura rather concerning
I assume Hayakawa was rather conservative for the party at large and likely would have gotten a primary challenge, but what exactly happened between 1976 and 1980 that Hayakawa replaced Church but did not participate in the next election?
also how has Hawaii been impacted by Japanese presence in Kyoku?
What's the reason for Taft's support being so much stronger in northwestern Ohio? When I see stuff like that in reality, it's usually someone going from being a congressman for a district in that region to trying for a statewide office, but here he's already the incumbent senator.

* third-party tickets like Joe Manchin (No Labels), Cornel West (Independent), and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (Independent) are too minor to be included
** via [UNDECIDED], and as more Trump controversies pile up, Biden manages to regain 2020-esque levels of support, winning 2024 (right-wing third party tickets don't help Trump's efforts, either; the Cornel West ticket has a negligible impact on Biden voters)

* following the Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis and ensuing New Recession of 2027-28, support for the Kamala Harris presidency drops enough to force her to drop her campaign early on in the primaries; Pete Buttigieg eventually becomes presumptive Democratic nominee
** Nikki Haley loses her popularity among Republicans throughout Biden II and Harris I, being toppled as first-place option by Vivek Ramaswamy (some cite his similarity to the now-deceased Trump as a cause of this) who proceeds to win 2028
Otherwise, I have Kamala Harris / Roy Cooper (the existing Democrat ticket) for 2028, which might work better — the only bit that's needed here is for the Democrats to lose 2028 with a candidate they feel somewhat good about.there's no way the Democrats are running two white guys on a Presidential Ticket ever again, especially not against a ticket including a Southeast Asian Man and a Northern Conservative Woman.

As I am virtually tech- and design-illiterate beyond (most of) Office and email, may I request, from anyone with greater savvy, a wikibox for the election I've described in this thread?
(Note: should inclued six faithless electors to the Dixiecrats, from Alabama and Florida)
There's a Miraheze Alternate Elections Wiki, if you're wondering.this might already exist somewhere on the Internet but someone much more intelligent than i am has to make a basic Election Wikibox Generator independent of Wikipedia's own software so that they stop getting pissed at us for accidentally saving edits on different pages.
I use an election wikibox template which I edit with Inkscape, you can download it here. Then I take a screenshot of the wikibox in Inkscape, and it looks exactly like the real thing.

What'd you think of a progressive like Pramila Jayapal getting the 2028 nomination?try someone more likely to get the nomination and have the Democrats feel good about, say someone like Josh Shapiro or another popular Governor or Senator.

My vision of the Democratic nominee in 2028 since I did the original scenario has always been a moderate, with the Decency Movement spurring a progressivist takeover of the Democrats in 2032 — the idea is that the Democrats slowly move away from moderate candidates as it becomes clear that progressives have the necessary momentum to beat Ramaswamy in the next election.
Ah right. Somebody on AH.com brought up Gina Raimondo as a replacement running mate, with me having already chosen Josh Shapiro as nominee.she can't take office, she's a naturalized citizen born in India.
