I mean I could probably think about some things if i tried hard enough but on balance, I actually think ET as a whole has a way better grasp on the election than most people do, especially moreso than journalists and pundits.

Right leaning election Twitter doesn’t understand how important the spending gap could be in the swing states. I’m not talking about ads, I’m talking literal gotv operations. They matter.

Left leaning Twitter doesn’t understand that, no matter how factually correct the graphs may be, showing people graphs about the economy doesn’t work vs vibes.

I think some of it is people on the left pointing out a lot of negative economic sentiment is because of negative media around the economy. if everyone around you is saying the economy is bad, regardless of your circumstances you'll be more likely to agree it's bad and look for the bad things and vise-versa.
