2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumPredictIt betting site - for Democratic nomination: Clinton: .73, Sanders: .30
.. this site is for those who want to bet on who wins the election this fall, who wins Democratic or REpublican nominations and more.
If you want to bet on Hillary, it will cost you $.72. If you want to bet on Bernie, it will only cost $.30. This is a way of handicapping the nomination. HRC has been bid up. Sanders, not doing so much. NOw, this is just a forecast but last night on PBS Newshour they interviewed "DAVID ROTHSCHILD, Economist, Microsoft Research".
Rothschild said: "I think that the (betting) markets have really been ahead of the polling and ahead of the pundits."

OP
It's her nomination to lose, but I'd be glad to go a few hundred on Bernie with the spread.

If she wins the nomination, it's going to be tight.
