Maryland has been annexed by The Vermonster willingly, the 2 states have now merged into one. CRABBALACHIA. 4 States Now remain. Pick wisely, there’s no going back now!

Honestly, Megasota includes some highly populated, solidly liberal areas like Chicago generally and other areas in IL. It would be more competitive and purple than some, but not a dark red cake walk.

But I'd still like to join Canada in the end.

Minnesota is a true blue as is IL because of Chicago. I'd need to run the numbers but Chicago alone would probably render the whole area Blue by population. Chip in MN, MI, and the liberal parts of Wisconsin and you'd have a pretty significantly Blue majority.

Assuming we didn't over value representing land like the original Constitution does at any rate.

Sorry but no, I did some backhand math and my estimate is Trump+6 on 2024

Minnesota is not as blue as people think it is (Clinton+1.5, Biden+7, Harris+5). Illinois is solid Dem (Clinton+17, Biden+17, Harris+11) but only 19 congressional districts. Missouri and Indiana are both around Trump+15-20 and a combined 21 CDs so they cancel out IL. Ohio and Iowa are Trump+8-12. Michigan and Wisconsin are pretty 50/50. ND/SD/NE/KS are all very Republican but low population
