Polymarket
Not trolling or anything just trying to understand. Everywhere I look I see the odds of Republicans retaining either one as less than 50% yet in here people are feeling good?

Because much like r/pol is an echo chamber for commies, this is an echo chamber for conservatives

This is the same headline we see every election. Polls are heavily skewed Democrat, so no one believes them anymore.

When has the Poliboard ever been pessimistic?

Democrats have no strategy to win other than orange man bad. Their voting turnout in their own primary’s have been abysmal and the ones that had a large turnout they primaried crazy for even further left candidates. We also have no reason to believe polling that hasn’t been accurate the last decade.

Well the odds are basically a coin flip the Republicans hold the House and most seem pretty comfortable they'll hold the Senate, although it'll probably be by no more of a margin than now which is pretty thin. Not sure how either side would feel super confident of complete and total domination of the other at the moment.

I don’t feel great…but don’t think it’ll be quite the massacre the media is portraying. Hoping the Rs will hold the Senate.

Let's start by discussing what Polymarket is.
Do you think it is a reflection or analysis of the races and the polling?
If I offer you 2:1 odds on a game...do you equate that to there being a 2:1 probability of one team winning?

I don't feel good nor bad about midterms. It's too far off. I'm more concerned with Kentucky. That's tomorrow night.

Outstanding. 58 GOP Senators and 231 GOP Congressmen at a minimum.

“Betting odds” not “probability odds”
House tries to position themselves in the middle of the money. So they don’t lose either way.

You’re dreaming up facts. Turnouts have been strong in most places…
Posted on 10/9/26 at 4:49 pm to VOR
In most places? Throughout the entire country? And my curiosity is getting the best of me: I must ask, how exactly do you know this, ie what are you relying upon in support of this claim??
Posted on 10/9/26 at 4:54 pm to davyjones
Because the Dems are aligned with one the most awful coalition of social rejects ever assembled??

I Keep up with politics in other states. I’m on my phone now and I’m not going to search out and post a link for you. Remember what happened within the last two years when Dems won governorships and also turned out for redistricting propositions…

Okay show us which states are going to carry them to victory and don’t use polymarket

It's an echo chamber for republicans they're not conservatives and certainly aren't right wing
