North Carolina just called for Trump. If she loses Michigan which is likely then it's over.

I can't remember which election it was (maybe obama first time), but I remember the odds swinging drastically just like these did. Someone was a huge fav.. then they show the stupid projections on the tv and the odds swung HUGE. In the end, the original fave won. I had to dump some money on Hillary at +200 because of this.

On second thought, maybe it's a good thing I don't, lol.

Have been flipping around to several different channels - didn't realize there was even more to see ... will have to add PBS and online sites to the rotation as well

EDIT: Looks like CNN finally made the prediction for Florida going to Trump ...

If Trump wins this, the DNC deserves to lose for conspiring against Bernie Sanders, stealing his nomination and running the most hated democrat in history instead. Bernie would have steamrolled Trump.

Trump blowout. And he was 12:1 at 8pm on 5dimes. -2150 now.

Shows how much the media really swayed the opinion on this election, right down to the oddsmakers.

All my liberal friends yukking it up for months about how the Republicans nominated someone so hideous that Hillary would look good by comparison......

They had it exactly backwards.

Funny thing is, anyone with half a brain knew the polls were rigged. Look past the MSM and the proof was everywhere. Obviously rigged polls means the odds were wrong and Trump was the easy bet.

Just blows my mind that on a poker/gambling site most people ITT were still taking those lol odds and betting Hillary.

They were just saying on one of the news channels that the polls for Michigan during the primaries showed Hillary Clinton winning by something like 8 points, but Bernie Saunders actually wound up winning that primary.

So it sounds like there might have been signs that something might have been fundamentally wrong with the polling for this election cycle, if the results of at least one vote involving Hillary wound up outside the margin of error?

Maybe, I'm obviously finishing down but even with these surprise results I've won bets on CO, NV, NM, IL, VA at odds around 1.2-1.4 (with the exception of IL), and lost on FL, NC and probably the general election. Obviously NH, WI, MI and PA still to come but I'm probably no further down at this stage than I would have been up if the conventional wisdom had held, which shows how generous some of those odds were.
