'Discontent over the economy has become one of the biggest issues of the 2012 presidential election. Indeed, it may determine whether President Obama is re-elected to a second term...'
Can I change 'determine' to 'challenge' or 'affect' in this case ?
I just want to try using other synonyms but also avoiding to misinterpret the original meaning of the word itself.
Thank you.

You could try 'decide' if you really must change what is just about the perfect word in that context. Rover
