If you're reading this at the time of publication you're obviously not paying attention to more important matters - like the Packer/Texan game. Nevertheless, as long as you're here there is this.
From time to time I've mused about the premise that the betting world is a more accurate forecast of an election outcome than traditional polling methodology. There is reason to believe that the predictive power of a wager is not only more reactive to events as they unfold on the campaign trail but with skin in the game a wager is more accurate.
So, while traditional polls show the Harris Trump race to be a dead heat - the Vegas line tells a different story. If you take a survey of the betting markets you will observe that (as of the time of publication) Polymarket, Kalshi and PredictIt all favor Trump over Harris.
If the odds makers are correct, Trump will walk away with the electoral vote.
We got a game on folks. And it ain't your ordinary Sunday football match-up.
