1. Voter suppression seems to be working.

With a large number of voters disenfranchised in PA, Romney leads there. Repubs are clever about stealing elections.

2. Also because of PA Voter ID

There's a decent chance Mitt wins it now.

10. Perhaps it's time . . .

Perhaps it's time that the Democrats and the public fought back against Voter Fraud for a change?!

And even more to the point, perhaps it's time that the law be changed so that Secretaries of State (partisan political individuals) do not run elections, voting machines and the ballots? It should be run by an independent, non-partisan elections commission as it is in Canada, Britain and other Western countries.

Allowing Secretaries of State to be in the position to steal elections for their parties makes America's electoral system not much better than that in 3rd-world countries. Just last month the Arizona Secretary of State was trying to keep Obama off the ballot there.

And then there's the stories surrounding Katharine Harris in 2000 in Florida, and Ken Blackwell in 2004 in Ohio . . .

3. He's up to 55.8% now

There had been a general upward movement in Obama's number on Intrade recently. Maybe that drop was a temporary reaction to the job news.

4. what a useless barometer this early on.

[Douglas Carpenter]

5. it was down to 52.5% just two weeks ago so with it now at 55.8% that is still an over all increase

6. That's alright. Intrade got the SCOTUS decision on the ACA wrong. n/t

[DavidDvorkin]

9. No, it didn't

The odds started dropping on Intrade the night before the decision was announced. By the time of the announcement, it was at 50% -- pretty accurate, considering that Roberts had changed his vote, but in any case not wrong.

7. Its way to early to be making intrade predictions about November election

8. Posting this is a silly waste of time. This and most polls don't mean SHIT right now.

11. Now it's jumped to Obama - 56.9%, Romney - 41.0%
