Ok, in the 1992 elections OTL, Clinton's number actually DECLINED, not increasing, when Ross Perot came to the presidential race for the second time. If Perot decided to run for the senate, all of Perot's popular vote will go for Clinton. Here's the scenario: Clinton had 57% of the votes, with Bush at 38%. After Perot re-joined, and the three-men debates was completed, Clinton's number decreased by 14%, while he achieved 19%, and remained so. Bush's percentage point was just the same as before Perot's second entry. Electoral votes for Clinton would be 526; only Mississippi voted for Bush (12). So yeah, although it is lopsided. Just close this if you think this is wrong; I acknowledge this is an alternate history wiki.
