was made up. The point is would've taken a massive unrealistic swing for Trump to get over 400 electoral votes. The line had to be drawn somewhere. Harris won New Mexico by 6 points and New Jersey by 5.9%. You might as well have said why not 30 points. That way Trump could've won California and Maryland too. Giving every State that he was in within 15 points besides New York is already extremely generous, because one of the States he was barely within 15 points was Illinois which would be ignoring the fact Chicago exist which is over half the population in Illinois lives in the Chicago metro area.
