this year will have an unprecedented negative campaign in both tone and quantity due to superpacs. That kind of ugliness is going to cut turnout as it turns off voters. Plus both candidates have some base issues that will drag down turnout as well...hence my 2000 prediction.

Oh and lets not forget all those new voter ID laws, voter role purges and reduced or eliminated early voting. That all adds up to less people voting...you know...to save democracy.
