Presidential: Intrade Has Obama at 92%




We're starting to get real numbers and Intrade, the political betting site, still has Barack Obama about where he was this morning: with a 92% chance of winning the election.

The markets can be wrong -- they turned in Kerry's favor incorrectly in 2004 based on exit poll data. But they do aggregate the information we're getting in a way that any individual can't.

About

GOVERNING Politics is the place for news and analysis on campaigns and elections. If there's a ballot measure in California, a legislative election in Alabama, a mayoral election in Anchorage or a governor's race in Rhode Island, GOVERNING Politics probably is writing about it. We love everything about state and local politics, from polls and campaign ads to policy debates and demographic trends.
