Predictit has up from 7 yesterday to 27 today

[Tribetime]

In keeping control of the House and currently at 91 to keep the Senate up from 77. Hopefully a good sign.

1. Been following this closely too

House is not lost now. At this late state it's a 3-1 shot, but that's way better than Rep's 10-1 shot in the Senate.

2. I'm ignorant at this

How "accurate" are they? Just curious because I see Predictit mentioned on various threads.

3. Yeah, me too. These are gamblers. Why should we trust them?

4. Well, professional gamblers tend to take their predictions very seriously.

They're professional predictors, and they go out of business if they're wrong too often.

5. Good point but gamblers are often wrong.

6. I just look at the trends after the votes start coming in

I don't give them much credit before that
