Oh, but PredictIt is saying I lost a bunch of states (PA, GA, MI, AZ) that are STILL contested, and which have competing electors. I'm fucking pissed.

There are several ways in which each state can still flip. Even if it's a long shot, lets say 1%, that's what betting is usually about. For example, in a coin toss, you might bet 45-cents, but not 55-cents, regardless of whether the bet is for heads or trails.

Ultimately, the reason I bet was not because I thought it would be settled on the 14th, but because I thought it would be settled after the 14th, and all of their communication seemed to suggest they would wait for all relevant court-cases and contests to be settled. It seems that wasn't true.

I think all of them are bullshit, because all of those states sent two sets of electors. As a result, only when we know which sets of electors are actually accepted, can we know who won each state.
