I'm one of those people that doesn't really bet with politics and it's a good question why you're asking we're not into it.

The most common answer that you can hear is that the interest. I have interest in politics but I don't have an interest to gamble and bet with it. I find it odd and interesting but it just doesn't really fit my taste.

I don't know whether bet on politics exist in any of the gambling site though I stand to be corrected by whoever has come across it in the past and have participated in it. If actually such exist then it will the most easiest way to win since it is not that difficult to identify who will win an election and who will lose the election.

Of a truth no betting or gambling sites will take the risk of betting in who wins in elections. It is very easy to know the next president or governor by just analyzing news and political gathering. In my country for the past 5 elections now I can tell the next president, governors, and senator by just reading news and know where people's mind is.

I can tell that you are not gambling in sports or gambling using the sportsbook.
To tell you, there are different odds in election, of course those who are popular and people think will win will be the favorites, and normally, when you bet 100 usd, you don't win equal 100 usd, it's gonna be lower, depending on how popular the candidate is.

Lastly, sportsbook don't loss, they accept bets from different bettors and they balance the bets because they are only after with the commission from the winning bets.

Yes, this is going to be a completely new one which I didn't come across anywhere with the gambling websites. It is very hard to build this type betting website because we don't know a local person who is contesting and from which party they are nominating. Locally people themselves will bet on them by placing money in the intermediate person.

I have never in my life placed a bet on politics. I wanted to bet on Hilary Clinton to win the elections vs Trump a few years ago and we all know how that turned out so it is a good thing that I didn't. For those who like politics and have inside knowledge it can be a good opportunity to make a nice bonus.
You are so lucky that you didn’t, I have someone that lost his money on that election. It was crazy. We all called Trump a clown and a business man that is not fit to be the president of but then the end result was amazing and today he is doing so well as the president.

I also don’t gamble on politics, it’s quite risky but comes with big rewards, aside the risk, I am not really very good with politics, I don’t even enjoy the discussion but those who are will definitely make money from here. Politics gambling is most definitely among the most played and most profitable gambling, I have close friends that have made money from this gambling and it is impressive.

I think that buying index funds is somehow betting on politics.

For example, when trump won sp500 just went to the moon. Probably Hillary would have crashed sp500, at least in the first months.

I haven't tried betting on it before, mostly coz I live outside America and I can't find anyone to bet with. I haven't really checked if crypto betting sites hold bets for our elections.

@OP that would have taken guts to bet on Trump in 2016 considering most surveys say Hillary would win. But that really would have made you money had you followed through.

Even I never come cross crypto betting on politics, it is completely new one which I have never seen before. Most of the reviews given to Trump in 2016 were completely negative, but finally, Trump won in the 2016 elections. Betting on Politics is really new one to me.

And do you know what's the opening odds for Trump?his odds was 25/1, and those who bet early will get this line.
https://fortune.com/2016/11/09/donald-trump-president-gamble/

There are big time gamblers who loss in election betting also because they were confident that Trump has no chance of winning.
All is written in the article I shared... so now, it's not if we can find that kind of odds, and we will see another upset again.

I almost never bet on politics.
And I think that politics should never be available for betting because when money is involved more corruption comes up and the election result may not be a transparent one.

Why not? Sportsbet.io have been doing this before but I don't know what is the result, there is a lot of gambling online allow to have betting in every election come. To be honest gambling on election day is illegal they supposed to be baned on that day, but it seems online gambling is not manipulated they do what they want. I never tried to bet on that kind of betting games. This coming election probably it will have again on some sportsbook site.

Politics gambling has been around long time ago but not popular like the casinos, dice, polo, sport and the others.
In some countries it might not be played online but between two parties who agree to do it; its mostly offline.
While some countries, it is an open online business . Though, I personally feel the risk is still higher.

I'm not bet too often in politics because the time is very long, but right now I'm placing a bet on the Freebitco.in about "USA - Presidential Election 2020 - Democratic Nominee"...  I think this is very good and I think it's easier to predict who the winner is.

I am from the Philippines so placing a bet on the politics from another country would be hard however here in my country its quite predictable on who will win in politics most specially if its a local election. Go for those that are being endorsed by huge groups that votes in block voting, the chances of winning is big even if the opponent buy votes.

Yes if there wouldbe a site where we could gamble on politics from Philippines we could easily win on our bets.
I hate to admit it but most of our fellow countryman would only vote those who are well known or famous they don't care about the candidates platform or plans as long as the candidate is famous they would vote him/her.

That would be our tips just in case politics betting will start. But it looks too far from happening, people will never consider it to be part of the game and I don't think so. Politics is the dirtiest game ever and I don't see a fair play in here which also be fair for gamblers.
Of course, gamblers will put their bets into the person(as the hint above), and the question is have someone will place their bets to the opponents of the said person? It for sure nobody. Then it seems to be useless if we have these betting.

I have never done political gambling.
In my opinion this is truly unique to do, but who are the strong candidates in this matter. In which countries do the voting now? I do not know the political information here. So, it is difficult for me to try to bet on politics.

Not losing is nothing special in gambling and not worth celebrating, if you say he is lucky not to have played, don’t forget he would have probably won if he did and for the person who lost, I believe there is another day to recover, so you should ever laugh at another player’s misfortune in gambling. I placed a bet on that election also and I lost, it didn’t even affect me in anyway, after all I only gambled what I could spare, there is definitely no way the money would still be there if I didn’t gamble, I would have used it on other things by now.

I gamble on politics anytime there is an opportunity to do so. It doesn’t come often but can be interesting, I am a fan of politics gambling.

If actually such exist then it will the most easiest way to win since it is not that difficult to identify who will win an election and who will lose the election.

It actually exists. I have come across one. I think it is a Blockchain/Ethereum based platform called augur or something. This is their Twitter Handle: https://mobile.twitter.com/AugurProject?p=s
The fiat-based politic gambling probably exists too but I have never come across one myself except the Crypto-based augur.
