I'd be shocked of this wasn't one of the most attended elections ever. Policies might make a difference for those on the far left of American politics (so not that far left, but I digress), but this is going to be about Trump, who is highly unpopular.

The GOP and media have successfully painted the Dems as Marxist commies. A lot of independents will stay at home.
I expect a lot more shenanigans this election
So do we start to worry about Warren’s “electability” (gah) now?
I have no idea about turnout projections just yet but I actually agree with a lot of the rest of what you said. A lot of people don’t really care about policy which I find frustrating. I think it’s natural in America that it be the left who cares the most about policy because America’s ills are pretty much all products of right wing ideology. Once you start to focus on that it’s tough not to move at least centre left as that’s where the solutions lie. That’s why people who like Biden and Clinton never really talk about their vision actually being the best for society, it’s all about pragmatism and “what can be done.”
On the flip side of course you have the cnuts who care about policy so they can keep lining their pockets.
The corporate dems care about identity politics, their donors, symbolism/optics and ultimately being in power. Trump upsets that apple cart (well, except the donors) so sadly I think a lot of people will go to the polls to vote against him. I can’t really criticise too much as I voted for someone I can’t stand in the 2016 general because she was running against Trump.

You can’t hack a paper ballot
Such a shame. As Florida now looks solid red.
Lots of rednecks, rich golfers, and conservative types over here. Also Florida isn't suffering like the other battleground states in terms of jobs and opioid crisis. So even some moderates who only care about their own livelihood are going to see the economy working well for them and vote in Trump as a continuation of that.

Feck me why are liberals so terrible at everything.
DeSantis is apparently very popular there now. It will be very hard for the Dems to win it, especially if a progressive winds up the nominee.
Is that Biden chasing Kamala's arse?
It's Florida. Land of the batshit crazy.
Someone gave him whole milk instead of skim and he’s totally lost it

Both are cringeworthy but at Kamala’s has some relevancy to culture with the drumline and all. The Buttigieg one is just pathetic and sad. They seem like the kind of people where you could make out with their girlfriend in front of them and they wouldn’t do anything to you.
Did you instinctively want to call someone a ****, but then didn't want to say the actual word due to the overuse by alt-right types?
I'm going to have to get a vaccine
Nah because a **** actually wants to see his SO get fecked.
I’ve never seen a more swaggerless bunch of people.
That's because all the #swagger this week has been in Kansas #TeamPompeo
Did you read that Yang is getting support from a Super Pac?
Burn him then, he's not hipster enough now. What are we going to do now Ffs?
Redirect all monetary resources to Bernie.
So basically no point in Warren then?
Never trust asian men. At this point, we should just give it to Bernie.
She would probably fall victim to gender discrimination, which unfortunately has not been blunted yet.
I personally think Sanders is a better choice than Warren herself but what you say is right. Unfortunate though. At least, Sanders or Warren will answer the 'should I convince the left' or 'should I convince the middle' argument.
The biggest unknown issue is how much Russian intervention in the 2020 election Trump has requested.
