What is the impact of anxiety on an election choice? We explore this with James Bisbee as he explains his thoughts behind the fall of Bernie Sanders in the Democratic Primary race, how he thinks the Presidential race between Joe Biden and Donald Trump could look like, how the Congressional and Senate races could play out and what kind of measures the US could adopt to facilitate their elections later this year.
