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

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.
Problem will be with users that have more than 1 account voting for both..

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

There are a few websites which let you do this ,I could think of right now is www.paddypower.com or www.skybet.com Basically they're usual betting websites but during elections they tend to accept bets on candidates .

That's not really a problem. If they bet for both they won't win a lot of money or even lose some of there is a lot of people in the winning side.

Man, there are so many boring things to bet on now. Elections, weather, reality TV show winners etc. I prefer to stick to casino based games & sports.

I suppose the bookies will offer anything if there is a niche for it though.

Almost all bookmakers offer this election betting service. Odds are quite low, due to the fact that election results are the most predictable ones.

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

I hope there will be betting site that has Philippine elections to play with cuz its really easy to know who will be the winners of the elections here on our country Grin (fellow countrymen know what I mean Wink )

P.S. Presidential elections here will be starting on May 2016 , I would definitely bet all my bitcoins if there will be a betting site with PH elections Grin

Betting on Elections candidates is quite easy. People can easily know what candidates who competent enough to win.
And by the way i'm never bet on that things.
If i choose to support any candidates, then i prefer to give contribution to them. Not by making bet.

There are a lot places to do betting; horse racing, sports, or casino games.

I can't wait for the presidential election betting to happen in crypto sportsbook.

Mayne quite a new idea, but well my one vote won't even make a difference. And I don't think anyone would wait months for election to happen and double/triple their bet while they can do it on a single click on a dice site.

Directbet offers this kind of betting but it is too early to place bet on any candidate.There is still one years and still candidates are struggling to be nominated by their parties.I would also place bet once the situation is more clear.

I don't think it's easy at all and usually the same rule of betting applies there too, if the contender is favorite to win, like Djokovic is favorite to win a grand slam then the odds you get on it are quite low and you'd have to bet a lot more to make anything which in itself is a risk because a minor shift of votes and you risk losing a lot of money.

DB has it but if you don't see a particular event OP then ask them, they add the events if they can and/or if there is much demand for it.

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

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.

great idea! if someone requested then i hope that will implemented before the presidential election next year Cheesy i can really feel who will be our next President (unless there will be a cheating incident, again)

Wow. That is a good talent if you could predict it or that politician could be like a real winner? It is still quite funny just thinking about making a bet for this politicians. If they knew what is going on they will feel like they are cocks (rooster?) fighting each other.

There is really easy elections to predict. A city election can be easy to predict. Some win with like 70% of votes. Just perform a census or look at one that have been done by someone else.

Predictions can be easily done by anyone, even if you conduct a survey or census you will never know the probability of a winning candidate until the election is over, that is why it is good to have an election betting for this !
