Crossroads(@Dr_Crossroads):There's a fairly wide spread for most somewhat close/contested races in prediction markets vs what we see in the polls. If we see the outcomes come out very differently than the predictions markets are showing, there's a good chance that some were intentionally stacking the deck in favor of one candidate, knowing that these markets are often used in lieu of polls. The good news is it's a self-correcting problem, as this spread between PM and polls would be seen as an opportunity. Tonight will be interesting either way.
