If theres a betting happen i want hillary clinton to be the president because trump is racist he is far different to duterte. Trump hates muslim while duterte loves muslim he wants unity in his country. Trump dont have a lot of experience in executive branch, legislative branch and judiciary branch while duterte have so many experience in politics he is 20 years mayor in davao which is executive branch, he is also experience to be a congress man which is legislative branch and also a prosecutor which is from judiciary branch. So I guess Hillary is better than Trump because Trump is also base on his imagination not reality because he dont have experience unlike duterte he means what he say.

In would never. American politics are a mess as it is. I doubt gambling is a good idea no one has any idea the outcome. It could be anything and you can't bet again or martingale its a hit and win or lose story.

As the title says, is anyone betting on the American election? Who are you betting on? Trump?  Clinton? How much did you bet?

I personally think it's immoral to bet on elections, because the election odds at a gambling site will usually foretell who's going to win the election, as the same people who are betting are voting.

P.S. Betting on the next pope isn't allowed, so why should betting on an election be allowed? Now that's just messed up.

I haven't every bet on an election, but I have thought about it before and have looked into it some.  I'm really curious why you think it is immoral.  Your reason didn't really seem to be a reason to me.  I don't get why you think it is immoral, just because it will likely be close to what the actual election results are.  Also, I've never heard of betting on the next pope as "not being allowed."  Who says it's not allowed?  Who enforces that "rule"?  I'm pretty sure anybody can bet on whatever they want to bet on.
If there's a betting site which allowed to bet for the next pope who will stop us to bet? and betting for the next president was already been their it is not an argument who to bet with but it is and argument when to win a huge amount hahaha as gamblers always looking for another ways to win good money. so there's no limitation about that,  we just needed to embrace that gambling was already been a part of it.
Its funny if there's a site for pope betting and i think its a sin if you bet in for pope  .. its better to bet in other game not for pope who will next pope. its a sacred. If gamblers start those game they are no respect..

I haven't said much about the primaries and upcoming election, but it seems like a good time to put a few thoughts together.
I have a visceral dislike of Clinton's foreign policy decisions; she's been on the wrong side of much of history as it seems obvious that the interventionists have failed. But domestically she's still much better than Trump. I have friends who will never vote for Clinton and I understand the impulse, but history tells us there are times politics is anything but idealistic--look what happened to Gore in 2000. Would we have been better off with Gore? I have no doubt, but the idealists who voted for Nader--a good man, and it was their right--also enable the Republican Party and the disastrous policies that followed. We also must ask why POC generally don't line up with Bernie. I think this is because the devil you know is than the devil you don't. Black Americans support the Clintons because of the personal relationship Bill developed--though his policies left much to be desired. I might also add that Hillary's support about Hispanics is also very strong.
One of Bernie's biggest problems is he didn't even contest the Southern primaries. This was a failure in his campaign. He didn't take the time early in the campaign (when there was time) to do the necessary minority outreach. I support Bernie because I like the fresh, insurgent quality of his campaign, but the Bernie or nothing campaign will be disastrous. Even with all the unrest in the United States, I don't believe change on a grand scale is about to occur. And even if a revolution could occur, do we want to experience the level of violence that would accompany it? Economic inequality is a serious issue in this country, but we are not Russia in 1917. And we are certainly not the 13 colonies in 1776. It will take a good deal more robbery and deprivation before the average person in the United States is willing to sacrifice for such major changes. Think of the failure of modern revolutions. It is not a pretty picture. Subversion of the current status quo is desirable, but the potential consequences must be weighed in the equation.

I will bet.I can also bet with people at the forum.Willing to bet with me via credible forum member?

I think I will bet on this election, as the odds of Hilary Clinton winning are high, and you get 1.72x your bet on Hilary if she wins, which is a fairly decent amount.

For me 1.7 odds are not that great to wait for so many days to know the results. And also election results are not so easy to guess, last minute it can change.

I'm not betting in election and it is just my opinion instead I will bet on any other sports with same or better odds to get results faster.

Well those odds are not that bad actually now that I think about it. I don't like one should wait so long for the result but really, Clinton will win, there's no way Trump will really, many people will "hate vote" against him if the polls are close.

Yes, it looks Clinton got a good chance win this election. I may bet small amount.

We don't know when the Pope will die, so we don't know when the next Pope will be elected. May take decades, and the favorite ones today may be dead by them.

I think there is no next Pope election more because of that than because of immorality .

And religious people usually aren't much into gambling, so may not be worth. and there are too many cardinals, calculate all the odds would be too much of a work

Looks good Smiley I think they'll elect this clown. Attendance is not much in US so this clown can be easily elected.

You know, you may be right. I was 100% sure half a year ago that Trump has no chances but now ... hm it all changes so fast in this world. And I even forgot that the Attendance is a factor too. People who don't like Trump don't like to go to the elections either.

From this thread seems directbet is allowing to gamble on politics, however it seems obvious the likeliness of trump pulling a trump card on this is close to none. I would go with Clinton too on this. If the odds are 1.7x, I certainly think thats good enough to bet on it.

My bet is on Clinton... The only legit one i'd say.

But the odds on Clinton is very less just 1.7 odds as per directbet sites. Is there any other site offers to bet with better odds on election?

It looks only three candidates are most prominent are Clinton,Trump and Bernie Sanders and others are mostly out.

But the odds on potential candidates are quite less so I will not bet on election because I think I can get those kind of odds in some other sports game where I have more chances of winning my money than risking money in complicated election results.

I won't bet on it because I'm not American so I don't follow it closely (the same reason could justify my participation because I wouldn't be voting). Also this would be hard to predict who will win. By the way, betting on Republican and Democratic winner of primary isn't that hard, or betting on winner in each state. Maybe I'll go for one of these options.

I'm not. I learned my lesson last election when I lost. Mitt Romney was leading in all/most of the major polls leading up to the election having destroyed Obama in the presidential debates, but still ended up losing the election big time anyway. Although I do remember most of the betting money being on Obama. Me so stupid.

I agree with you. I think Hillary Clinton has a lot of chances to win, but knowing that gives us nothing because almost everybody knows that so even if they are accepting bets like this somewhere the odds will be very poor.

I will not bet on this election because this time not very easy to guess who will win. Also odds may not be so great so I will chose some sports to bet instead in election.

Election winner is not so easy to guess the winner because even poll results also will go wrong in may times.

As the title says, is anyone betting on the American election? Who are you betting on? Trump?  Clinton? How much did you bet?

I personally think it's immoral to bet on elections, because the election odds at a gambling site will usually foretell who's going to win the election, as the same people who are betting are voting.

P.S. Betting on the next pope isn't allowed, so why should betting on an election be allowed? Now that's just messed up.
