The Election Results According to Real Money Oddsmakers

Finally the election will come to a close tomorrow with all votes submitted. While we are constantly told who is favored by this poll or that poll you often have to question the sampling methods. That's why I tend to favor the real money oddsmakers because MONEY TALKS!

So what are the oddsmakers saying? While odds may vary slightly place to place, the message seems to be the same......Obama is a MAJOR favorite. Over at Sportsbook.ag you'll see the moneyline odds for an Obama victory is -300 or an implied probability of 75%.

You can see a snapshot of their swing state odds below.  (for those not familiar with moneyline odds you can convert them here). Oddsmakers are only giving Romney Florida and North Carolina.



So what will the final Electoral Map look like according to the oddsmakers?

Looks like a landslide for Obama. Don't agree? Maybe you should put your money where your mouth is and profit (or not)! Personally, I would not throw my money away on Ronmey and actually put money on Obama at -200. He got my bet but neither of them got my vote!
