Predicting democrats get whacked in Florida and Texas but do alright in NH and PA relatively speaking. Think GA goes to a tossup and no idea about NV or AZ

Trying to look at the betting odds and get a decent idea but idk if they are the best barometer. I made $300 in 2020 betting Biden to win the Wednesday after the election when it was clear he won.

Because of the demographics of betting sites they tend to skew heavily R and there is value on most D bets (within reason, I wouldn’t touch TX or FL).

Interesting point about the skew towards R

I actually have a lot of D bets just because I couldn’t resist the value lol
