@Weezing

Hey everyone, I used my mod powers to edit the title, changing "from a swing state" to "born in a swing state" to reduce confusion.

sold Ṁ87 YES

Where they are from is where they are born??? Why would you make that the criterion?

The odds of this happening should basically be the odds of Cooper being the VP nominee + 2-3% for other dark horse VP picks.

I assume that a lot of people who keep betting this up haven’t read the description very closely.

Pass on this market. I'm not looking up where people were born.

sold Ṁ145 YES

@Weezing why did you elect to make this based on birth state rather than the state they currently hold political office??

I wanted to keep it simple - everyone has a single place of birth. It seemed more messy when some political functions do not belong to any state and I guess some can hold different posts.

But I admit I missed that Shapiro is from a different state, I though he is from Pennsylvania.
