My personal thoughts:

Presidential Elections
> 2020 Presidential Election
> Past Presidential Elections

Other Elections

> Congressional
>> Past congressional
> State and Local
>> Past State and Local
> International
>> Past International

Psephology

> Voting and Electoral Reform
> Redistricting
> Political Geography
> What-ifs

General Politics

> American News
> International News
> Political Debate

In-Depth boards:

> Arts, Media and Culture
> Science and Technology
> History
> Constitution and Law
> Economics and Social Sciences
> Religion and Philosophy

Community
> Atlas
> Forum Community
> Spam

That seems like a pretty solid setup, but the only issue I have is that the In-Depth boards would again probably be low activity.

On a side note, I wish Leip would give the Modadmins some more power over things like this. He isn't really active in managing the forum and it would help if more leeway was given to Morden/Nym to better organize/moderate the forum. Either that or he himself get more involved.

One can wish

I think one of the reasons boards like Economics and History are underused is the very high trafficked IP board acts as a draw for all discussion, which drains almost every other board of potential content. Which is why I dropped it (although I guess it could have a future - a repository for "opinion of" polls?)

No more arbitrary "quality" standards for posts in PD.

I heavily protest the lack of a separate "Games" protectorate for me to host on that list.
