Predictit is very pro-blue wave in its odds it seems.

leftists are the usual buyers, you can tell from the forums

@[Lex]

I've been on PredictIt since May last year. It's full of leftists betting on their feels while still worshipping Nate Silver and circlejerking over how they think Drumpf is awful

Who’s Nate Silver?

he's the guy behind 538

in the West Virginia primary they were circlejerking over how Blankenship was going to make "rural retards who can't read" vote for him and give Manchin the election

He's a Jew who mispredicted the 2016 election and has lost a great deal of credibility since.

look out for this one commenter named 'Ballard'

he is a gay guy with an obsession over the alt-right. Apparently he thinks that if he wasn't gay, he'd have become an alt-righter, which is why he speaks out so much about them and how evil they are

his posts are entertaining because he goes into excruciating psychological detail sometimes, and has an ultra-pretentious writing style

I hope to the Lord there's a red wave so they lose the thousands of dollars they've gambled.

they also love this blog: https://politicalkiwi.wordpress.com/

yeah, if the Red Storm does happen, I'm definitely going to check out PredictIt

it was fun to seem them disappointed over Ossoff losing

What were the predictit numbers over that Georgian election?

sadly they got their fair of circlejerks over the Virginia Gubernatorial election, the Alabama Senatorial election, and PA-18

You can actually definitely tell that the stats in Nate Silver's gerrymandering atlas do not match his own statistics or even reality at this point.

@[Lex] IIRC, it was 80% Ossoff, 20% Handel on election day in the morning

This seems to be an interesting website. It’ll be funny to see leftists tears mixed in with thousands of lost dollars

Their own bias will govern their gambling decisions.

There's definitely a lot of potential for profit

A great way to put cash in red pockets.

🤑

There's a lot of severely undervalued bets on there

Libertarian intensifies

When you hit 18 you can gamble on PredictIt

Unlike actual casinos

There's a lower age limit.

I'm not a gambler but it seems like the best form of gambling to bet against unjustified liberal optimism.

not too long ago they thought Heitkamp was the likely victor

Yep.

We can amass a fortune and then become right wing Soroses

they're more like "ReactToIt"

there are HUGE fluctuations when a new poll comes out

Dang, I should've put some money into Georgia.

People lost incredible amounts of money in the US election.

Tbh I wanna just get a new PayPal card and invest in this

Hindsight is 20/20 when it comes to elections

If Button was so sure that Trump would've won, he should've betted on it.

I guess even the blue wave isn’t even certain of its strength

and HUGE fluctuations on each election night depending on the trend at some instant in time. For instance, for Alabama, there was a large swing towards Moore because he was leading over Jones by quite a bit

and for PA-18, there was a large swing towards Saccone when he was leading by a bit

Remember that guys? When he said that he wasn't surprised by the Trump victory?
