Looks like this will come down to Pelosi retirement and whether Tom decides to take the beginning or end of Feb 1 as the price point.

predicted YES

Here's a spreadsheet. In most scenarios Manifold does better. Still @TomShlomi, could you clarify what happens with the unemployment rate and Joe Biden still president markets? The manifold probability changed over the course of the day on Feb 1 for those markets.

@BoltonBailey I'll use the probabilities from 12:00AM ET

predicted YES

@TomShlomi Thanks for clarifying!
