Elections are what people always try to predict the outcome and how it will turn out. For every election year, there’s always a keyword that is on the lips of everyone, and this time around that word is “Anticipation”. The election happens to be among the Republicans and the democrats, which have divided the people into two groups. Although most people might not take it too seriously, the media are always around the corner waiting to blow things out of proportion.
However, while there is so much buzz about the election, below are a few things you need to look out for, and they are predictions that are bound to happen; the first thing to look out for is;
Amount of divisiveness
The first pre-election predictions happen to be the amount of divisiveness that the media will use to escalate issues that will come up during the election. The election is just 90 days away, and within this period, lots of things will happen and the media will generate lots of divisive means to gain attention from the public. Hence, one should anticipate a high amount of divisiveness in the forthcoming election.
Major protests and riot
The people involved in this election are very competitive hence, you should expect major riots and protests from supporters. If you think you have witnessed a protest or riot during the election before, then you need to brace yourself because this time around there’s going to be more protests and riot.
More potential “George Floyd” stories
It is normal for the media to always bring up stories during the election, and they always go for stories that will attract attention to them. It’s not like these stories don’t happen, but in this election period, the media will concentrate on stories of the blacks being shot or oppressed to further create chaos in the country.
More volatility in the market
The rate at which money will be spent in this period will keep people wondering what will happen next. Warren Buffet, who is one of the richest men in the world, is said to have spent 560million in gold, and he is worth over $147million in cash, not to mention his assets. With all of this, the world is not just folding their hands and waiting, the market volatility will be more.
Pressure will cause new people to step down
Pressures will come from all around, and people who are new in the game will be forced to step down and, in most cases, distance themselves from associating with others.
Schools shutting down again
Parents and students need to prepare their minds about schools shutting down again during the election period. This is bound to happen if things hit up before election preparation and if the riots become fierce.
Vaccine talks will continue to hit up
There’s so much talk already about vaccines, and reporters are already saying people who took the vaccines might react to it shortly. With the elections around the corner, there will be more heated conversations about vaccines.
New leaders are about to emerge
For every crisis that happens in the country, it always gives rise to new names and leaders. Take the COVID 19 pandemic as an example; it has given birth to new names that have never be heard. The election period will give birth to new leaders that were never heard in the past.
Canceled debates
In this election period, 3 debates are supposed to hold, and we are certain that one debate might be canceled. This is because, some of the aspirants might be having the debate from their homes and it will cause an uproar in the country.
More wealth being made
People usually take advantage of the period of crisis to make money, as some people will be too busy with the ongoing election that making money will be the least of their problem. While some people will take even the slightest opportunity to create wealth for themselves.
New stories withheld to affect the campaign
There are some stories that the media usually keep for the last-minute campaign. Such stories are often about the aspirants. These stories don’t come up at the early stage of the campaign; rather it takes the people unaware and comes up when they least expect.
Certain states and cities will play more games than others
Every state and city in the country will get involved in the election campaign and everything that has to do with it; however, some states and cities will be very hot. Some borders will be shut down, some states will rise against each other, and some will be very smart in playing their games properly.
The new political superstar will be born
The election period is a time where you will get to see new faces that are getting into politics, and amongst the new faces, a superstar will arise who will become popular within a space of 90 days.
More viral videos
Videos made by common people tend to go viral, and they suddenly become a political expert. Most videos made during a period of crisis tend to go viral under a short period. Most times, you will see a video made by a name that isn’t known, and within 24 hours the video will go very viral and have a million views.
Major post office issues
Trump, who is the present president, might decide to shut down the post office, but this might not go down well with other aspirants. Thereby causing great problems and misinterpretation.
Whatever happens during this election period, one should have it at the back of their mind that blood is blood; hence, families should not arise and fight each other during this period. The above predictions might occur before the election, so everyone needs to brace themselves and be prepared.
