Hmm just tightened up to 17k votes, was that Camden?

Maybe I paper handed out too soon.

Not sure. I can't say I'm a huge fan of playing the "wager on the reporting speed of the jurisdictions" game in states that I'm not terribly familiar with.

Man, I dunno, I just punched out. Essex is in, almost all of Passaic, and he's still down by 1.3?

Edit, well half of Passaic.

Apparently 2/3 of the absentee ballots have not been counted

Yep, I maxed out for D again.

Phone ran out of juice right as I was mashing the max button, haha. Should have just held on through the whole thing, but got in for *nearly* the same basis i started with.

Burlington is in now, sussex and salem are only red counties with good chunks of votes, and I think the 10% left in Essex is about equal to that population.

13% more in camden should more than outweigh the remaining odds and ends.

plus up to 600K remaining absentee? wasn't sure if that was on top of the % reporting numbers NYT is showing.

It'e been all over the place, but NYT showing Essex at 90% is clearly wrong, as everywher else has higher vote totals listed and is in still reporting 70%.

They're showing 90% with 152,000 votes cast, when there were more than that difference cast in 2017 and turnout is far higher across the board.

They don't count the same counties in the same order. It can get real confusing going between the two, and DDHQ notably makes more mistakes in data input (but all sites do sometimes).

Two big elections in a row, the January Georgia runoffs and yesterday's Virginia's governor's race, FiveThirtyEight's polling aggregate helped me win $$$ betting against people who bet on the huge swings that happen early in returns

I sneaked back in on some Youngkin 1-2% at 9 cents after doing a few flips which might pay off. Otherwise it's a total wipe.

At least it was interesting.

I sincerely hope you held these.

:). Yeah, although I held them past the first big spike into the 80s and got to go through the crash. I went with my gut and just got now out like I should have before. Little gunshy after all these flips. Once my NO Younkin 3%+ settle I should go from a wipeout to a small profit which I'll be very happy with.

That's been one hell of a market.

Yeah it's not worth putting new money in at this point but it's probably not worth withdrawing it and paying the fee either, and I have a lot of leftover MAGA money from last time Hillary refused to enter the race in late October.

Waiting for the year to end on the filibuster market to free up some money that, for now looks like will be moving over to the French Election market.

The Josh Hawley fiasco will never end and I have money stuck there until it does.
