Well Sanders is the democratic front-runner right now, so the odds should at the very least be -130. I wonder if the house is just throwing a political betting line out there as a novelty item. But those really are great odds you locked in!

exactly .02 short of the threshold of when the bank has to report it to the IRS. Smart.
 
Once Biden enters, I'm going to consider starting v2 so we can get our Sherdog strawpoll going. There's still a few hold outs (Bennet, Abrams, DeBlasio) but at this point... come on.

Think we should be mutli-vote or single? If multi, select 3? 5?

That makes 18 major candidates in the race, by my count:

Warren
Buttigieg
Booker
Sanders
Ryan
Delaney
Gabbard
Klobuchar
Harris
Yang
Inslee
O'Rourke
Castro
Gillibrand
Gravel
Hickenlooper
Moulton
Swalwell


Seth Moulton
He's a good guy from my home state he's no fan of Nancy Pelosi an is not a war monger. He has more in common with Tulsi then Buttigieg. I imagine though he does not support free college an he's a bit more towards single-payer healthcare. But he's only a so so debater an not the strongest guy to go up vs Trump. But his statement about socialism shows he does not understand what Bernie is looking for not pure socialism.
 
Creepy Joe is the Dems only hope since he isn’t pushing economic changes like the others......yet anyways
 
Anyone watching Bernie Sanders on CNN? They are really trying to trip him up.

Is this a prediction poll or a preference poll?

I think Trump beats Biden. I think Sanders, Klobuchar, Buttigieg, O'Rourke are the toughest matchups for Trump. Keep in mind I don't like any of them so preference isn't biasing my analysis.

Straw poll will be preference. I suppose v3 could be prediction if it’s not done beforehand. Those usually aren’t too exciting though as most just vote what the current polls show.

Ok. Make sure to add a "I don't like any of them" option.

Definitely. In 2016 I did it, and people from the opposite party were making picks on who they thought was likely to lose. Kinda defeats the point of the poll and I think that option would somewhat help fix that.

I think Sanders is in even better shape if Biden doesn't run.

Motherfucker. Someone needs to sit him down and have a talk. He’s seemed like the most indecisive person since 2016. It at least made some sense in 2016

Why not go at his own pace? By the standards of a normal cycle, it's still quite early. IIRC, Trump didn't announce until May 2015.
