Prediction market between Kamala Harris, Donald Trump evens out as early voting ends

Trump harris
Harris' Saturday surge ebbed as Sunday progressed.

After a Kamala Harris surge Saturday after an Iowa poll showing her leading and a guest spot on Saturday Night Live, Donald Trump has rallied in the PredictIt prediction market.

The PredictIt market for “which party wins the presidency” finds the price of a Democrats’ “Yes” Share slightly higher than Republicans: 54 cents to 52 cents, after GOP shares went up by three cents in the last 24 hours and Democrats’ went down by the same.

The “winner of the 2024 presidential election” market also is approaching equilibrium after Harris being up 8 cents over Trump. A Harris “Yes” is 53 cents, while Trump’s is at 52. The spread was as high as 57-49.

Harris the next president is 54 cents for a yes, 46 cents for a no. That is down two points day over day.

    Are you better off now than you were four years ago? It’s the economy stupid and it appears many of the Kammy voters have amnesia with regards to that. Then there is the Southern Border debacle. That right there should disqualify her.

      4 years ago I was dealing with Trump’s incompetence i.e., telling people to drink bleach to get rid of covid. So yes I am alive no thanks to Trump.

        In the simplest of terms so that you might understand. The price of a gallon of gas went up on day one of the Biden administration when he declared war on the petroleum industry. He had to back off at some point as the consumers were balking at the price of fuel. That’s when he opened up the SPR in an attempt to lower the price. Should we talk about groceries, insurance, home prices, etc. or is that too icy for you to grasp. Then there is the Southern Border, foreign policy. Truly the most inept administration in a lifetime.

          There is no war on the petroleum industry. You’re posting fake News. Here are the FACTS;
          Gasoline was less expensive during Trump’s administration because Trump needlessly pillaged the reserves AND COVID brought about a stall in fossil fuel demand. Fact two. More American fossil fuels have been extracted from American soil under Biden than in ANY period in American history. Fact three. The fossil fuel industry current has over 1000 unexplored site to drill baby drill. Stop your fake News lying.

            Fact. On day one of the Biden administration he signed Executive Orders on restricting leases on Federal Land and Water for oil and gas exploration . Prices immediately went up. It was Biden that then started releasing barrels of oil from the SPR in an attempt to lower prices. Spin away my phony independent.

            You are a low-intelligence voter that cannot even get basic facts right. The SPR was 695,116 (thousands of barrels) Jan 2016. It was 638,086 Dec 2020 – a decline of approx. 8%. Today it stands at 379,656 – a decline of approx 40% since Crooked Joe took office. Doh.

          Pining for the past is great for people miserable in their present lives, but the correct comparison to make is how U.S. Americans are doing today relative to how people in other countries are doing today under the worldwide circumstances that exist today. The answer there is that US Americans are doing fantastically better than all others around the entire rest of the the world. And had Trump been President for a 2nd term, we wouldn’t be doing this well. Inflation would have been far worse than it was due to the man’s precious ego. He would have stalled raising interests rates even longer than they took, resulting in a much worst economy and surely a Trump Depression. Praise the Lord interest rates were not subject to Trump’s ego and vanity or we would all truly be as lost as GOP influencers, all of whom are rich by the way, tell half of us we are.

            Another low-intelligence voter…. If you will remember, President Trump wanted to LOWER interest rates not raise them. Rates were only raised after massive overspending and liquidity creation supported by the Biden-Harris administration caused runaway inflation. Stop making up your own delusional facts to support your equally delusional opinions.

        Harris was never the border czar. You know this.

        Trump made it much more difficult to enter legally. Make laws equal to when his mother and two of his wives entered. Or when DeSantis’ eight months pregnant g.grandmother entered the country. (Adjusted for pop.)

      I have never filed a claim on my homeowners insurance, and I have owned my home a long long time. I did replace my roof eight years ago or so. It was over 20 years old when I replaced it. No insurance games. Its useful life was over. Of course there are neighbors of mine that played that game. Not me. Nice try Frankie M.

    To the petulant question: No laws? The answer for DJT is No Laws Apply to Him, now or later.

    And, the constant disinformation regarding Trump’s loyalties: Russia, Russia, Russia.

    The Mueller Report states that if the Special Counsel’s Office felt they could clear the president of wrongdoing, they would have said so. Instead, the Report explicitly states that it “does not exonerate” the President and explains that the Office of Special Counsel “accepted” the Department of Justice policy that a sitting President cannot be indicted.

    DJT is a capitalist first and an American second.

    Fred S:
    Bogus. Strategic petroleum reserves (SPR) is almost irrelevant and in any case doesn’t reflect the actual production of oil in the US, which now is larger than Saudi and Russia.

    United States
    The US is the world’s largest oil producer, producing an average of 12.8 million barrels of crude oil per day in 2024.

    Saudi Arabia
    Saudi Arabia’s crude oil production in September 2024 was 8,975,000 barrels per day.

    Russia
    Russia’s oil and gas condensate production in 2024 is estimated to be 515–521 million tonnes.
