    Here are the odds right now on PredictIt, the legal US politics betting site, which I avoid now because the fees are too damn high.

    Democrats to take the House: 73%
    Republicans to keep Senate: 91%
    Ted Cruz to win: 78%
    Florida gubernatorial: Gillum (D) 74%
    Missouri Senate McCaskill (D) 37%

    If the fees weren't prohibitively high, a bet on Gavin Newsom to win CA governor at -2000 would still be a steal. That's a lock.

    But the fees actually kill any profit on such a bet.

    A tough governor battle in South Dakota.

    Kristi Noem, Republican versus Billie Sutton, Democrat.

    Sutton would be the first Democratic governor there since 1979. Noem would be the first female governor there ever.

    Noem has a slight lead in the pre-election polling (2%), and also has the advantage in that the state is very red.

    No results in yet.

    Right now PredictIt has the Noem as a slight favorite.

    I am tempted to buy a bet on her, because as well-liked as Sutton is, I don't see a Democratic governor winning there.

    Okay, I just laid $188 on Noem on PredictIt, as slightly worse than even money.

    Amazingly, Bob Menendez, a clearly corrupt Senator who skated away in a mistrial, is almost surely going to be reelected.

    Here's a "longshot" which isn't actually a longshot.

    The Iowa race is very close.

    Incumbent Kim Reynolds is slightly trailing in polls compared to Democrat Fred Hubbell, but you can get Reynolds at better than 3-to-1 as a dog right now.

    I'm going for it.

    LOL PredictIt has crashed again.

    You'd think they'd have fixed this problem over the past 2 years.

    What a fucking failure of a poster. Either you saw it coming from a mile away or the fix was in to begin with.

    Pains me to do this, but I'm betting former lesbian (now bisexual) Krysten Sinema (D) in Arizona at better than 3-to-1.

    Race is super close.

    Well PredictIt is being bitchy and not letting me place bets (usual fail from high volume).

    I can now get 4-to-1 on Sinema, which I will do if I can get the damn bets down.

    Of course tonight Republicans are doing better than expected so far, so this may be a dumb bet, but whatever. Odds justify it.

    Per @paddypower @Lee_Price on House majority odds: "On the hour update: Dems are 8/15, Reps 11/8. The shortening trend continues. Senate odds, by the way, haven't shifted once. Republicans huge favourites there, of course." Yes, it's "favourites" across pond, with a "u." @Covers
