This is based on 43 states being considered "non-negotiable" and "set in stone" while only 7 are considered "swing" states

Also consider I specified "voters", who are at best only 2/3 of the total population, which leaves out about 100 million extra people

and those aren't even exclusive terms. you can have democratic republics and undemocratic republics, as long as it's not a monarchy it's a republic afaik
