Although that's not what intrade and every betting site is saying.

I have a bet with max that Obama has to win by +5

 

5 EC votes?

 

Those odds dont seem right. For instance...one Bookmaker(sportingbet) has Obama 1/5 and romney 16/5. If I put 16 on Romney and 5 on Obama, there is no way I can lose money. I will either brake even if romney wins or win $4 if obama wins. Why wouldnt someone put up 10s of thousands of dollars, wait 4 days and either get a hefty 20% return or get your money back. They are basically giving money away for free.

 

I think i did the math wrong... you would bet 16 and get $21 back with Romney & bet $5 and get $30 back with Obama, right? So thats a $9 possible win or 40%+ return

 

Stay away from anything to do with math my friend. Not your strong suit.

 

Sure, shake hands and enjoy life, no matter who wins.

 

Or, instead, continue a life filled with hatred, anger, and sadness. I prefer the previous response.
