Description

Republicans currently control both chambers of Congress. What will be the new balance of power after the November midterms? Multi option bet. Pure parimutuel madness!

Decision Logic

Media consensus will be used to determine the outcome. (NYT, Washington Post, Fox news.)

If there is no majority either in the Senate or in the House, "Other" option wins. Bernie Sanders and Angus King will be considered Third Party candidates.

and you can still earn 3 BTC by placing just 0.03 BTC on the ridiculously undervalued violet option.
