yeesh I had assumed peasant had a pretty good understanding of the market and had some info unknown to the sharps, turns out its the opposite and he literally has zero clue what hes doing. Time to buy back into 150-155

Its still close as assuming unreasonable 100% acceptance on remaining ballots you only get 155.6m but all the 99% states are still counting

OK I've bought enough shares my risk appetite is exceeded, so I'm happy to share my analysis now. Basically the main thing to understand is that the UFL Elect Project numbers are currently tracking 'ballots cast' which is not what this market is about. This market is about 'votes for President', which is what the resolution source (USElectionAtlas) tracks. Something like 0.8% of all ballots cast do not include a vote for President. So if you think the Elect Project numbers are mostly accurate, which I do, you end up getting around 0.992 * 155,800,000 or 154.6M votes, which is funnily enough very close to what I estimate. I think this confusion between 'ballots' and 'votes for President' is the main reason this market has been so mispriced and there's been so much confusion in the comment section. If anyone has mistakenly bought YES on 155-160M based on this misapprehension, it's probably a good idea to sell now before other people realise it too. Happy hunting! :)

Agreed, I think that caused a ton of confusion (and I had to check resolution criteria a couple times). Im also max risk here, but my methodology is looking at known uncounted votes and applying that criteria (as well as a curing discount). Last time I ran it, 153m counted with 2.63m estimated to be counted which means an unreasonable 23% of uncounted votes would either have no presidential vote or not pass ballot curing.

With all the quants in this market, make sure you adjust for - ballots vs votes - provisionals - write ins - chances of new vote discovery - 3rd party votes. Good luck out there

Between California adding 100k to expected votes (not ballots!), write ins (state by state rules), provisionals, there are a lot of ways you could accidentally undercount. The official estimates are actually pretty good

New: Clark County discovered last night that more than 1,600 mail ballots were not tabulated, per a letter sent to the secretary of state. The county says the ballots did not change any results and were always under county control. The county is canvassing the final vote today.

If you extrapolate out by 5 days after the election using 2020 like someone did below for 2016, we get to 158M. Huh. Same thing as 2020. I wonder if there is a pattern here..

It's basically a coin flip at this point. To be over 155, there would need to be 98%+ turnout of the 2020 election.

This is the most fantastic market, because both Reuters and UF Election lab would imply its just under 155, but its not priced like the coinflip it is.
