I'm still wary, do we know exactly how many votes the organizers say are coming?

Looking at the order book I think .52-.50 might be a floor

I don't see any Republicans risking their neck for her when a number of their colleagues openly hate her and a Democrat has come out against her nomination. Other goons will likely have different thoughts on the matter.

If anyone is game to sell me one of their extra hats (a dark/black one would be cool) for a non-exorbitant price, I'd love to snag one from ya. I need a constant reminder of my terrible, terrible bets.

Vox Nihili posted:Apparently my third hat is arriving Wednesday. Vox!!!!!! I went back and looked through my spam folder again, found an email from the 20th (that wasn't the first offer eh?). For what its worth this one says you need to maintain 3K with them through March 1 to qualify. When I click through I see the hats/mask, but there isnt any link to actually *get* the hat. Its like one more step in the tease. I'm guessing the blank implies I'm very late and its out of stock. Dunno why google lets through their daily spam, but had to catch the hat offer. It came from predictit@predictit.org as well, but the display name was "The PredictIt Team".

I am now in on the Newsom recall market on No after Yes went to 70c+. I think the recall campaign is only submitting signatures they have internally verified but is reporting total figures that include the signatures they have already set aside.

The market volume is low enough to make things interesting if a few well timed moves were made. Just sayin'.

Looking at the a little deeper but the Recall Election Organizers claim that have enough signatures. They just haven't validated them yet. https://twitter.com/thatnesler/status/1362923911894102019?s=20

Newsom market's pushing back to 80. Sold off everything but some now-house-money yes shares I bought sub .60 during the dip after flipping the no's. Glad I started paying attention to this one. Thanks for the heads up, Zeta.

So, is 80 Yes on Newsom's Recall just dumb MAGA money or people who won't read beyond headlines?

Crosby B. Alfred posted:So, is 80 Yes on Newsom's Recall just dumb MAGA money or people who won't read beyond headlines? FWIW, I'm yes on this. This isn't a perfect analogy, but I remember how awful early 2017 was and how Democrats kept chasing all these special elections that didn't pan out, but there was all this frantic energy mixed with panic, money, and the urge to do something. MAGA is all in on this, they need a victory and I think they get it. But it will be a pyrrhic victory. They force a vote, but there is no way Newsom loses. Another analogy, remember how many times Wisconsin Democrats tried to recall Scott Walker? Newsom hasn't been that great on COVID and you just have to say the words "French Laundry" to make 30% of Californian's blood boil. Forcing a recall isn't all that hard when the other side is bitter and motivated, pulling it off is another matter.

While I don't care for Newsom personally even as someone who leans left I do agree with other posters that he'll get an easy re-election.
