Looking at Polymarket and other polls is giving in to the popularity contest that elections have become.

Instead there should be data re the policies that both sides have supported in the past and support now and the impact that said policies could have to the economy at large and to the lives of individual citizens and businesses today and projected into the future.

Show different scenarios and probabilities based on what each candidate and their parties would do based on past performance and what they've said.

Then people can get a real sense of what the impact could be on each side.

Of course, none of this matters because the majority of people just want a popularity contest so that's what we get.

I completely agree that focusing on data-driven analysis of policies would provide a much clearer picture of candidates’ potential impacts. Voter engagement should prioritize informed decision-making over popularity. Presenting scenarios and probabilities based on past performance would empower citizens to make choices based on substance rather than superficial appeal. Unfortunately, as you pointed out, the popularity contest often overshadows meaningful discourse, making it hard to shift the narrative.
