Big movement on Missouri, for the moment at least. Both just got pushed up to 89. I sold 400 Hillary YES shares I picked up earlier today, so there's some volume to it.

that was an easy flip from 75 to 90 right there, thanks bernies

I'm really tempted to just sell out hard at 90, because there's probably a good chance that they both get forced everything back down to 80 again once the bernouts come back in force. Edit: And, in case anyone is looking for safe pennies, I guess the Trump Debate market is as close to a sure NO as you can get: https://www.predictit.org/Contract/2297/Will-Trump-participate-in-the-Salt-Lake-City-debate.

dangling pointer posted:I wonder how/if they keep the people working on this website honest. If you knew the rule change was coming it would have been the perfect opportunity to tell your friend to max out on sub 5c Bernie shares to dump when it spiked. From your link The Treasury Department posted:1. Which woman will the Secretary choose to feature on the $10? This is going to be the first woman on US currency, so I doubt they'll go with someone as obscure as Wilma Mankiller (How many Americans even know who she is? 1%? 0.1%? Until today I didn't). If that FAQ is to be trusted, it will likely be someone related to civil rights activism, and I would think it'ld be somebody everybody knows. People know Helen Keller mostly for being blind, not for social activism. Don't think she's big enough impact. DItto for Eleanor Roosevelt, she's not who first comes to mind when you think civil rights activist. That leaves Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks from the PredictIt list. Tubman feels more venerable to me perhaps just because what she did happened further back in the past, but that's not much to go on. Also, everybody learns about both of them in school, so name recognition is high for both. If it was anyone not from the PredictIt list, I would say Susan B Anthony. Has the name recognition there, and its because of her civil rights activism. So, I guess what do you think they'll value more: freeing slaves, ending Jim Crow, or getting women's suffrage? If I had to guess, it'ld be the first one, but it's just a guess Of course, all this could be BS and I'm way off base, so there's that Edit: Clearly going to be one of those tricks where Hamilton is still the featured portrait, but if you fold the bill a special way, you see a picture of a woman instead BigBobio has issued a correction as of 02:57 on Mar 17, 2016 |

The odds are pretty good that Sanders suspends his campaign after Tuesday's primaries, right? I can't see him being in a position where it doesn't look sad to keep going, so would that make Hawaii and Alaska good buys for Hillary?

It's unclear what Bernie's finances look like - he burned $8m in just the last week and his fundraising has surely diminished since March 1 - but I don't see any reason why he wouldn't stick around until the convention.

Yeah he'll go as long as the finances carry him. You'd think with the writing being on the wall his donations would dry up like a normal candidate but he's not exactly a normal

Even if he doesn't drop out, I can't see him not continuing to get sweeped now that the wind is out of his sails and if he's demolished enough on Tuesday I don't see him getting big shows in Hawaii and Alaska.. I really want those cheap Alaska Nos for Bernie but I'm not confident enough to go crazy like some folks in here.

Hillary's path was basically over for quite some time and she won races right up until the end.

I'm surprised Cruz is still over 10 cents, there's really no credible path to the nomination for him is there? I can maybe almost see the a tiny chance that the RNC could manage to gently caress Trump in favor of Paul or Kasich or Romney but I can't imagine Cruz entering a contested convention with a smaller share of the delegates and coming out on top

To add to this, I don't think Bernie's plan was to ever win the nomination. He's an ideological candidate who is running to influence the party. He's the Ron Paul ^^^ of the left. Same basic thing. Crowdfunding, stay in until the end, etc.

As tempting as it seems, don't loving take a position against Trump in AZ. I'm telling you. I've lived here all my life. It's not happening, despite the fact that Trump underperforms in closed primaries. We're not a particularly religious state, despite how people identify. We hate politicians. We love money, and businesspeople. We're a fresh new baby state. We're STUPID. DON'T DO IT.

Personally my line is right around (Trump 1100) for a few different reasons. Trump's currently going to hit about 1200, so a low double digit price for Cruz is probably about right.

Apparently the Cruz campaign isn't even going to put up token resistance in Arizona They estimate that Trump has already built up an insurmountable lead with the 55% (!) of the electorate that has already voted early (and since Arizona is purely winner take all there's no reason to waste time there) http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/16/politics/ted-cruz-plan-1237-nomination-fight/index.html

Adar posted:If Cruz enters the convention exactly 1 delegate behind Trump he will be the next nominee. a large part of this has to do with there being a reason for him somehow grabbing 250 delegates more than Trump I think 1100 is a reasonable target (though there will probably be plenty of drama unless he gets 1150+). A fun one, too, since it may well come down to the final day of primaries, and California in particular.
