What is the reason for tightening in the betting markets?

Haven't been paying as much attention today but see that Predictit is getting close to a 50/50 coin flip and Polymarket has come up for 65/35 Trump to 61/39 Trump. Some clown on Predictit's board is saying the election is "over" because EV data (except NV) shows women are enthusiastic and "more Republicans will cross the aisle to vote for Kamala" than the other way around.
This flies in the face of all of the data I've seen so what are we missing? Just noise as we get closer to the big day Tuesday and folks are getting nervous?

Because that's how betting tends to go when it becomes 2:1 odds, people will bet the lower in hopes of getting a bigger payout for lower risk

every liberal message board seems to think Kamala is winning. Every conservative board feels the opposite. Polls I see reflect the same. That gives me the idea that no one knows shite and is just throwing shite against the wall for clicks

Mail in voting allows the democrats to illegally ballot harvest on an industrial scale.

That's just not true. Mail in/early voting for Dems is way down from 2020.

Trump still seems to be losing ground daily.
But the Ho still don't have a shot

Simple answer - the polls for the swing states are close. The underestimated Trump in 2016 and 2020. They overestimated republicans in 2022. EV data looks good, but is new and the predictive ability of it is pretty uncertain/untested at this point.

Kamala betting some of Bill Gates' $50M on herself.

I am sure Trump has successfully bedded far more women than Kamala has men. I am fine with disliking her politics but what makes her a Ho when Trump can just straight grab them by the pussies? Is there a different moral expectation for each candidate?
Neither of them have much depth on the family values bench.

Trump Tower didn't get built by Trump sleeping with women.
Kamala got where she was professionally by putting out.
You asked.

I’d prefer a qualified candidate that happens to be a Ho vs a candidate that Ho’d their way to the top

Ahh. Got it. So giving it away because you like to frick is morally superior than liking to frick and using it to your advantage.
She has so many shortcomings that make her less desirable as a leader than the candidate you support. Maybe being able to articulate that in someway other than by shaming her for sex would be a better approach. The hyperbole in politics is so boring and over fricking done. Low hanging fruit. Just like both candidates tits.

I never said either was morally superior. You can believe whatever you like sweetie.
You want an answer to the age old question of why women who sleep around are looked down on and men who sleep around are usually revered by their peers. I've gone 51 years without that answer and it sure as hell isn't going to factor into who I vote for.

Nah, I actually dont expect an answer. That double standard is never going away...but I bet a lot of men would be far more upset if the women tightened up those standards. You call her a ho but would you have fricked her back in the day without knowing her politics?
Maybe.
Maybe.

Never post but I’ll give you an answer
Not that I’d be paying attention to the betting markets. They just literally follow the polls
You have 2 candidates that most Americans don’t care for. It has and always was going to be a close race. That doesn’t mean it won’t break either way towards either candidate but it’s close.

Trump will likely win and the markets have favored him. Right now hedging your bet will insure no loss of funds so that no matter what you dont lose. We do this all the time on sports futures.
