On the cusp of 2020, a group of CNNOpinion contributors make a set of political, cultural and sports-related predictions for the year to come
Sign up to get our new weekly column as a newsletter. We're looking back at the strongest, smartest opinion takes of the week from CNN and other outlets.
Every year, we ask a select group of our contributors to make a round of predictions about the year to come. While last year's prognosticators failed to correctly predict much -- most of them thought former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke would emerge as the likely Democratic nominee, for example -- we decided to give them another chance to prove themselves. To focus their attention, we provided a list of 10 questions, highlighting some of the biggest political, cultural and sports-related events on the calendar. And there was a surprising amount of consensus among our oracles.
