Anyone want to talk me out of it?
On the eve of the last presidential election, I thought a HRC win was as sure of a thing as any. I remember looking at state polls in Michigan and Wisconsin and Trump wasn't winning even one over the last 30-40 polls and Hillary's average margin was +5 . On the eve of the election, her average margin on national polls was around 4 points. According to 538, it HRC had an 85% of winning the election. So I bet a nifty sum.
But as Leicester also taught us last year, freak events do happen, and another did.
All in all, if you can afford to lose what you re going to bet, go ahead. But if it's going to sting a lot if you do, lower the wager.
