IMO this reflects a combination of: * Modeling being fairly challenging (so most traders don't have good priors to anchor to) * Traders are emotionally invested in political outcomes * Herd mentality very strong in politics * Markets not super liquid — PolitiTweet.org

I don't think people realize how dumb and sometimes even irrational the prices are at political betting markets as compared to almost every other type of market (which is not to say other markets are always rational, either). — PolitiTweet.org

@thecity2 Yeah. Like, even if you badly misprice things such that you have a -15% ROI, that's really not *that* expensive if you're only making bets once every 4 years. — PolitiTweet.org
