[BTCBinary]

I was wondering... nowadays you can even bet on the weather conditions and stuff... so is there any site where we can bet on candidates for the elections?

You can try directbet. I ever saw there have a election betting but I never play on it because I guess it is hard to pick who is gonna win the election thing

Nice idea, I also hope there is a local betting and not just the elction in the US.

Maybe you can send a request to directbet to include Philippines in the lineup for the Presidential Elections this May 2016.
It's interesting that there's a lot of candidates.

Saw it too on directbet and it is hard to pretend which one will be elected, even an old mistake that suddenly appears from nowhere can influence it largely.
(Meanwhile, i prefer if they add African/Asian elections. )

Yes indeed, I've had my interest in elctions recently as this will be the firat time that I will be voting. LOL. I take these kind of stufds seriously.

Anyway, I doubt they will take a request from a single person, a mass request might get their attention tho.

if you are really interested in pushing a request to directbet for them to add betting on the upcoming election in the Philippines, i can support you and we can ask more support from our local thread, im pretty sure they will be interested betting on that too

It is a good proposal. People can bet on their favourite candidates but it is the most difficult one to guess as well except in some cases their will be sure candidates like they might be winning from last few elections continuously. If these guys still doing good for his people then we can guess he/she may win otherwise quite difficult task to guess it.

I saw that you can choose George Clooney?

That would be an interesting thing to bet on, but I am sure it will be easy to guess, just follow the money

[danherbias07]

Is this really possible?  This will be hard. There are too many candidates. Maybe if it is a small country with a little population that would be easy. 3 or 4 candidates. But when you say its a country with a lot of people and candidates. Whew! Percentage of winning is low.

It's not that easy, there are somw cases where there are two opposing teams with huge supporters so there is really a chance that someone will actually wins against the other despise who others think will win.

If the winning party is obvious, then no one will really bet on it.

In our country we have a lot of candidates for President, the number of running for President can equal the number of contestants for Ms Universe lol
Of Course as time goes by some candidates will be kicked out and number will be trimmed down to less than 5 candidates I think since some are considered as a nuisance candidate.

Do we really need to include cloudbet about this election? do cloudbet includes local election to be bet?

why don't we make a poll thread and give the BTC to an escrow, so if that percentage wins, escrow will give the BTC equally? is my idea gonna be that hard?

giving the bet to an escrow is a good idea that is if there's only a few participants and only 1 person is allowed to bet on 1 candidate, so that who ever wins escrow can send the BTC to the winner and no need to calculate or divide is there are more than 1 winner

I think we can't done this if the number of participants on betting is max to the number of candidates you will bet.
that means first come first serve on the one you will want to bet.  that is very difficult! I guess?

You can wait for the final round, when there is only two candidates that are still competing from the presidency. This way you all 1/2 chance of wining. 50% is still winnable if you are lucky.

nice idea but it is very hard to have the right prediction when there is so many participants if anyone will make it the odds will not be worth the risk
