Basically, this election presents a mix of reasons to think uncertainty could be higher *or lower* than usual. The case for low uncertainty: * Polls have been stable * High polarization likely = lower volatility * Relatively few undecided voters * No major third-party candidate — PolitiTweet.org

People might object to going back all the way to 1880. But in some ways, late 19c and early 20c elections are a *better* match for the chaotic conditions of an election amidst a global pandemic than say an election amid a standard postwar recession. — PolitiTweet.org

The case for high uncertainty: * Extremely high economic uncertainty * A huge amount of news, mostly around COVID, could create further shocks (yes, this can be quantified to some extent) * Uncertainties around voting mechanics during a pandemic may make polling (& voting) harder — PolitiTweet.org
