Description

Will Joe Biden survive 2021? Anything could happen at this point. This is a simple bet. Will Joe Biden be President of the United States on January 1, 2022? This bet is time-weighted so earlier betters will be rewarded for their correct prediction.

Decision Logic

Is Joe Biden President of the United States on 1/1/22? For yes, Biden needs to be the sole acting President on that day. No includes all possible reasons including someone else being active president on January 1st.
The only possible early resolution is "No" if Biden departs or is removed from office permanently by any means.

@JeezusChrist - regarding your report - the other bet is a Fixed Odds bet, so it is not a duplicate. Also, there is no issue with copying images from different bets...

The bet is now correct. If for any reason; incapacitation, impeachment, illness (requiring another 'acting president') death, resignation, removal from office etc. then he would not be sole acting president on 1/1/22 and bet is a NO. If he is sole acting president, bet resolves yes.

@JeezusChrist Okay, so you're looking at specifically on that day then, with the only possible early resolution being No in the event of him leaving or being removed from office permanently for any reason.

@Avalon Change logic to: "Is Joe Biden President of the United States on 1/1/22? For yes, Biden needs to be the sole acting President on that day. No includes all possible reasons including someone else being active president on January 1st."

@Hunch Thank you for the report. The issue with using 'acting president' in the terminology is the VP will be 'acting president' in the event of say a long coma of Biden, but Biden technically remains president. Please ping @JeezusChrist on clarifications on resolutions

Removed the word 'still'.

Instead of saying is Biden "still" President of the US on 1/1/22, let's change it to the description wording to be clear. Will he be president on 1/1/22. This way, as long as he IS president, it is a yes. For example, Trump was hospitalized with Covid, but remained president. However if anyone else is president that day, even due to severe sickness, I would assume that is a no.

Hmmm. ..... It's not a candy-coated hit bet?
Avalon 7:09PM, Jan 9, 2021 UTC
Updated. The prop is valid just needed to reframe the context. We will assume this prop would cover all potential No scenarios including impeachment, resignation, etc. @JeezusChrist - how will you handle a case where he is hospitalized and not acting/sitting as president however is not discharged in any way either?
JeezusChrist 11:08AM, Jan 9, 2021 UTC
Honest mistake. I did not know. I will request that they allow it to be changed to will Joe Biden be President on Jan 1, 2022? Same bet really.

Nah, they're not allowed here either. See Hosting FAQ #3.

Aren't death (hit) markets forbidden? Or is that only PredictIt I'm thinking of?
