I’m literally going off every betting site...

Biden is the favorite
Trump is the underdog

Everything I’m reading says Trump wins. What gives? Serious answers only please, I’m politically retarded

They win money off the juice. Vegas lines are not straight up predictions

Polls show Biden ahead. Polls were mostly wrong in 2016. If they’re similarly wrong this time Trump could win again.

Most of this board believes they are similarly wrong again and Trump will win.

Some also include the hedge of “Trump wins in a landslide unless theres fraud” because they don’t want to make an actual prediction.

I’m seriously considering putting 10k on trump to win to make some good money off of it. I think trump wins. I have no reasoning for it because I don’t follow politics closely enough.

How can you have a poll though?

This website is more pro Trump than any state or news website, ergo, pro-Trump topics dominate discussion.

An anti Trump topic is rarely, if ever, met with any real discussion.

As a result, it is obviously a Trump echo chamber. If you even start an OP with concern for Trump’s chances you’ll be labeled a troll.

Fact of the matter is Trump is a single digit dog tomorrow, but he’s got a legitimate chance.

I have no idea what some of you guys watch and read.

Trump may very well win, but basically every poll and computer model have Biden winning.

Biden is the favorite for a reason...because he will most likely win. Biden has multiple paths to victory...Trump basically has 1.

I don’t care who wins, I’d actually prefer Trump if you put a gun to my head and made me choose, but make no mistake...Biden is winning this election, just as every poll has him winning the election.

Folks on this board should do what any reasonable LSU fan should do - bet on the opponent money line.

LSU wins, good for your spirits. LSU loses, good for your wallet.

If he doesn't sweep the "blue wall" Biden loses.

They were, and they may very well may be wrong again.

But I’ve seen a couple people say “everything I see and read has Trump winning.”

And all I can do is shake my head, because those people are either a) lying or B) reading what they want to read...because pretty much all polls are in agreement: Biden will be winning this election.

Vegas doesn’t set lines, that is illegal in the states. All these betting sites are offshore and you have to realize this isn’t a bunch of degenerates betting Ohio vs Toledo. People all over the world are betting and betting on the liberal shite they see on the internet. The betting markets keep it where there is plenty money on each side to catch the vig and global perception is Biden will win based on the poison they see in some shitehole European country.

The majority of democrats vote early, the majority of republicans vote on election day. That's the way it's been for a long time now. And this is why if Trump is just a little bit behind right now in a certain state, chances are he will win that state on election day. This is exactly what happened last year and the polls are show that Trump's numbers are better now than they were in 2016.
