I don’t see Miranda winning, I think Carrie has a much better shot.
That said, I think Luke Combs might take it after all, but Carrie’s snub is still relevant, and she has been a huge part of the organization for the last twelve years. There’s obviously a ton of support behind Carrie, and to add I think a win at the ACMs could really gain her momentum come voting time for the CMAs. A strong case can be made for Carrie, and she may benefit from the “backlash” of 11/13. It’s hard to tell, and I think Miranda poses a threat more so in the possibility of splitting votes; Carrie won’t be getting as many female votes as last time, naturally, so that will work against her - and Miranda, too.
2020 is so up in the air, it’s anyone’s guess. If there was a year in which the CMAs could “make it right”, it’s 2020, because 2019 is largely being considered, or should be, anyway, but also because 2020 wasn’t an entertainer’s year, it’s just incredibly hard to measure.
Anyway, I think Carrie has a real shot, but I’m fully prepared to hear Eric or Luke named EOTY, and they too are deserving nominees. The category, for once, looks like it should. Five true top performers and entertainers who’ve all had massively successful recent album eras.

^ nah I see either Carrie winning or the votes will get split between the two and one of the guys will win. I feel like the CMAs are going to try to make it up after last years backlash, so even though Miranda is on WME I still see a large number of the voters going with Carrie.
Do you honestly believe those voters are gonna make up for their choices from prior years? Do you really think that they THINK they were wrong? I do not. I think their minds don’t work like that. I wish to God that Carrie would win this award as I think she has very much deserved it! But do I think the voters will give it to her for that reason. He’ll no. These are the same voters.....they have not changed. I refuse to get my hopes up again. Don’t even think I want to watch. No Brad. No Carrie hostess with the mostest. I honestly think even she gave up hosting like she did on those voters getting it right. She just has an endless supply of CLASS to never show it.^ nah I see either Carrie winning or the votes will get split between the two and one of the guys will win.

Oh and Miranda is going all out on Instagram. So I don’t think she will try and sway voters in another direction.

Like most of us here when she doesn’t win we get frustrated and mad for her, but her dignity and selflessness that comes out of each and every overlook is something I highly enjoy about her. She doesn’t let it stop her. Not everyone loved “Cry Pretty” but she did. She got to produce on it and be very involved and loved the outcome. And at the end of the day I think she grows more and more humble. She was never promised the life she has, but American Idol gave her these choices. She has a wonderful family that I’m sure others envy, and when people think Reba or Dolly their first thoughts probably aren’t “I wonder how many awards they’ve won” they just ARE the legends and Carrie has the legend status in the bag.
lol, they've been a laughing stock for years. TIn 2009 they gave ts a vocalist award over Carrie, Martina and Reba. In 2010 they nominated 3 opening acts for EOTY. That's just a few bizarre things they've done. Yeah they don't care what anyone thinks of them. For them EOTY is a man's award. Period.Are you not aware of the backlash the CMAs received last year? They were literally the laughing stock, and looked completely stupid after last years show. That was the first time there was ever an uproar after a shows results were announced in recent history. Tons of media outlets were reporting on it, even people who aren’t really aware of the country world heard about it. You don’t think they are going to try to do damage control try to clean up their name and right the wrong they did last year. I do. They might not and might stick to their old ways, but I think they want to try to keep their name and not be a laughing stock with the public again. As for Miranda, going all out is a bit dramatic. She legit made one post thanking the CMAs for nominating her, which every artists does. Carrie would have done the same thing as well, but she isn’t too fond of the CMAs right now (and rightfully so.) When she was nominated last year she made the same post Miranda did thanking the CMAs for the nominations.
Going all out?! Her team just put up what her nominations are.
