research,

Saw something recently claiming that the pros in Vegas made a fortune off of the MAGA betters who were so sure that Trump was gonna win that they distorted the odds way past reason. Could be that Georgia betting is distorted too.

I read similar things. The thing that happened(in the articles that I read) with the betting on the national election is that Trump voters kept on putting money on Trump to win after the results of the election were already known. Same people probably were donating money to Trump to "help" him overturn the results of the election. The odds that are there right now can reflect where the money is coming in from but usually also has something to do with who the oddsmakers think will really win.
