Thesis

EHIQ register read: most personally anchored speaker in the corpus, but qualifies more specifics than any other primary candidate. Activist register — confident on identity, hedged on specifics — caps her at the progressive lane ceiling. Polymarket 5.45% prices her higher than EHIQ math suggests: ~3% nominated × ~25% wins general (general-election ceiling on progressive lane) ≈ 0.75%. SHORT mispricing.
  1. 1.AOC register read: highest personal-anchoring in the corpus paired with the highest qualifier rate of any candidate scored — confident on values, hedged on specifics.
  2. 2.Progressive lane ceiling ~25% in modern Dem primaries. Without consolidating moderate Dems she can't win nomination.
  3. 3.General-election profile: progressive register caps ceiling in suburban + Midwestern swing voters.
