*BONUS ALERT!* Any user that adds the exact correct answer prior to the start of election day (Tuesday, November 5, 2024 Midnight ET) will win Ṁ2500 upon the resolution of the market!

Participants are invited to predict the exact distribution of electoral college votes in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election, where 538 votes are at stake, and 270 are required to win the presidency. Participants must specify the exact number of electoral votes each major candidate will receive, ensuring the total equals 538.

If the official candidate for either the Democratic or Republican party changes (e.g., Tim Walz replaces Kamala Harris, or a different Republican replaces Donald Trump), participants should make predictions based on the replacement candidate. In such cases, the electoral college totals should be projected as if the replacement candidate were the original nominee. Clarifications will be made to the text, but no further adjustments will be made and the market will remain open.

This market will resolve based on the official certified electoral vote count as reported by the U.S. Congress when the results are formally declared. The market will consider the final certified totals, including any changes due to fringe scenarios or candidate replacements, to ensure an accurate resolution.

In the event that the electoral votes are not certified by the U.S. Congress within the expected timeframe, the market will either be extended until certification is completed (no longer than 30 days) or resolved based on the available outcomes.

If the certification process is delayed longer than 30 days, the market creator may choose to extend the market’s duration until the votes are officially certified. However, if it becomes clear that certification will not occur, all options in the market (including OTHER*) will be resolved NO. Market will not be unresolved or re-resolved for any reason after votes are certified and the correct initial resolution is made.

In the case of an electoral tie, the actual winning candidate of the election will not come into play or have any bearing in the resolution of the market. In that scenario, the market will resolve to "(Harris) 269 - 269 (Trump)."

"In the event of faithless electors—electors who do not vote for the candidate to whom they are pledged—the market will resolve based on the final, certified electoral vote count as officially reported by the U.S. Congress.

This means that if any electors cast their votes for a candidate other than the one they were pledged to, the electoral votes for the candidate who actually receives those votes will be counted toward their final total for the purposes of this market. The market’s resolution is strictly tied to the certified outcome, regardless of whether or not the electoral votes reflect the expected or pledged results.

Participants should be aware that the official certification, including any votes cast by faithless electors, will determine the market's final resolution

I reserve the right to open or close this market at any time, for any reason, at my sole discretion. This includes, but is not limited to, situations where new developments, unforeseen circumstances, or any other factors may impact the fairness, accuracy, or integrity of the market. Terms and conditions of this market are subject to change at any time based on new information or platform updates.

Traders are encouraged to add their own answers. Only options added in the correct format (see below) will be considered for resolution, otherwise they will resolve NO. Duplicates will resolve NO. Spam will resolve NO. Anything not submitted in the template below will be resolved NO. Any option with a non-major candidate will resolve NO. No fees will be returned.

  • (Harris) xxx - xxx (Trump)

  • (Trump) xxx - xxx (Harris)

  • Order on line is determined by highest number, where highest number is first (except in a tie, where it is alphabetical)

Although the best option for this market is for it to be Multiple Choice - Dependent, in order to provide better market moderation over user submissions, I have made it Multiple Choice - Independent. This allows for spam submissions, improperly structured submissions, or completely implausible scenarios to be resolved NO and reduce resolution issues. Therefore, be aware that "OTHER*" will not automatically provide shares in newly added answers. It is explicitly for a scenario where the exact final electoral outcome is not listed as an answer prior to the resolution or the result includes a 3rd party.

Users are encouraged to also post a comment with a photo of their exact electoral map predictions. Even if users have not submitted an answer or the option in the map does not align with any of the answers, the first to post an image of the exact correct electoral map prior to the start of election day (Tuesday, November 5, 2024 Midnight ET) will win Ṁ500.

It’s election Tuesday in America! Let’s fucking go! Woo hoo! 🇺🇸

@10thOfficial When do you intend to resolve this?

@DavidFWatson January.

@DavidFWatson 312-226 is overpriced. Solid chance of faithless elector

@ChinmayTheMathGuy propose one, I'll bet!

Arbitrage opportunity!

sold Ṁ1,017 (Trump) 306 - 232 (... NO

I've been betting no on everything here,

since no singular outcome has more than a 2% chance of happening with an exception for 312-226 which is around 7%.

But then you factor the ~50% chance of a faithless elector and every single outcome should be around 1% and 312-226 should be around 4%.

Glad I moved to Florida!

The banner AI would like to announce the formation of a number of new U.S. states, including:

KOW — Kitten Occupied Washington
OSSH — Oregon Soviet Socialist Henges

УA — Уalifornia
NG — No Good
VORIA — the Vines of Voria
NИ — Nine Nails

And how did I miss —

HK — Hong Kong
NSA — No Such Area
VC — Venture Capitolina

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. All of it is wrong you are predicting here. You call this a predicting site?

bought Ṁ50 OTHER* NO

@PaulHabermas thank you for correcting some horrendous mispricings here 🫡

came to this market actually wanting information but the probabilities summed to like 2.5

This market is so wildly mispriced and shows how bad current public election models are

@ChinmayTheMathGuy It’s complet shenanigans here, there and everywhere.

@Predictor can someone post nate silvers model's histogram. I'm not a subscriber

@ChinmayTheMathGuy Mana bounty?

@Predictor how does that work? Idk I'm willing maybe 2000 mana

I anticipate shenanigans. This will absolutely resolve OTHER.

@10thOfficial will people still be able to add answer choices between November 6th-January 5th?

@HillaryClinton Why yes, of course.

@mods @10thOfficial Is it possible to create a new option without losing 1,000 mana instantly? It heavily disincentives creating a choice when it will instantly go down to 5% from 50%.

Why does mannifold not have the option to start a market at non 50:50 odds?

@HillaryClinton can't you just bet it down yourself?

@HillaryClinton I am not certain I can help with this, but maybe others can? I'm really sorry.
