Prediction Markets and the 2008 Electoral Map

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the let-the-speculation-run-rampant dept.

Electionwatch submitted a predicted electoral map of the 2008 US Presidential election, based on the bets made by the intrade prediction markets. I'm always interested in these markets and how accurate they end up being. This one calls it for Obama, but then again you probably could guess that by just watching 10 minutes of any TV "News" channel.
