To put things in context, I was commenting in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election Bets thread in the Gambling section and I thought of proposing a small bet just for fun but no one took it up. Yesterday I saw that the previous eddie13 vs suchmoon thread had been bumped and it occurred to me to propose the bet to suchmoon.

As I have repeatedly said in the forum I don't like Trump as a person and I don't like some of the things he has done in the past, but I think many of the policies he is proposing are better than what Kamala is proposing and that's what I will defend in this thread.

I'll edit later with my signed message.

Goonies never say die.
The heat is on! Grin   

I'm disappointed in this election, but it seems a lot is at stake. Feels like the extreme sides of the left and right are up for election, with no other options available.  smh. Undecided

Good luck gentlemen!

If you think you've seen this before it's because you have.

This is a new bet that originated here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.64575392

Contract:

Code:
suchmoon's address: 18pTKHyCFyr5Gk3LHN4wKke1hUaT3wUnjb
Poker Player's address: bc1qlqawpy5yl7t3z9vfusuyxk9h0n42r8y8jwrd9s

suchmoon agrees to pay 0.01 BTC to Poker Player if Donald J Trump wins the 2024 US presidential election, and Poker Player agrees to pay 0.01 BTC to suchmoon if Kamala Harris wins the 2024 US presidential election.

Decision logic:

Election result is considered decided by the Electoral College meetings. After the 2024 US presidential election, if the Electoral College elects Donald J Trump then Poker Player wins this bet, and if the Electoral College elects Kamala Harris then suchmoon wins this bet, except for the draw conditions listed below.

Conditions for a draw (neither side pays the other side):

    If there is no presidential election in 2024.
    If neither of the candidates gets 270 or more Electoral College votes by midnight January 31, 2025.

Additional terms:

    EC vote total is final regardless of popular vote, pledged electors, unfaithful electors, Congress being mobbed, etc.
    No presidential election in 2024 (martial law, martians invading, etc) means a draw.
    If Donald J Trump is elected but doesn't get sworn in (dies, goes to prison, moves to Slovenia, etc) Poker Player wins.
    If Kamala Harris is elected but doesn't get sworn in (dies, goes to prison, moves to Haiti, etc) suchmoon wins.
    If a third candidate wins or gains enough EC votes to prevent both Trump and Harris from reaching 270 EC votes - it's a draw.
    Loser pays transaction fees.

Local rules: this particular bet, as well as betting on 2024 presidential election in general, and discussing the election itself is on topic. Everything else, including the usual P&S bullshit (you know who you are) is not.
