What will be the margin of victory in the Oregon Democratic Presidential Primary (5/20)?

why does it take so long to pay when these questions are suspended and the results are apparent...this is ongoing with hubdub

3 pm florida time and still nothing about the oregon primary result questions being counted...what is the point of betting

6 pm no results...time to get rid of hubdub and go to another prediction site

1PM Oregon time. 5% of the State has not been counted yet, 17.4% margin officially now. Too soon to leave negative feedback.

they are slow counters 8 PM fl time no results....joke

The smart guy was sick so the other guy is counting alone.

Unfortunately, many state governments are extremely inefficient. It appears Oregon falls into the category. It's frustrating as hell, but if you don't live in Oregon there is not much you can do about it. Worse yet, if you do live in Oregon there probably still isn't much you can do about it. Welcome to the world of Jay-Walkers occupying high places because their intellectually challenged brethren allow them to do so.

At 4:58PM on May 21st Pacific Daylight time the Oregon Secretary of States Office reported.. 2 minutes before going home for the night..
Hillary Clinton 250,044 votes (40.78%)
Barack Obama 357,917 votes (58.37%)
Write In Votes 5,221 votes (00.85%)
Total Votes 613,182 100% Counted

Barrack - Clinton = 17.59% Victory for Obama as I see it.

Now for the bad news. These results are still marked as unofficial.

wow....thursday am...I guess NO Results ever..what a joke

you would think hubdub would explain this...thank you people geek for an explanation

Well the slow results filtering in are not the fault of Hubdub. The category editor is simply waiting for the results to reach 100% of precincts reporting. There are many counties not at 100%, one as low as 50%, so while fast settlement would be nice, it is better to settle when the final tally comes in rather than settling one way now, and then having to resettle if the outstanding results push the percentages out of this range.

I just said they should explain the slow results destry

Well I think you are seeing the results of making errors in the past and making sure that markets are decided before being settled. I agree that I don't think the outstanding results will push the percentages out of the range, I dont think there is any harm in leaving the money in this question until the results are 100% reported. Normally Hubdub doesn't wait for certified state results before settling, just having CNN say results are 100% reported usually is enough. I imagine if there is super close race and a recount could change the results the wait would be even longer. These election questions sometimes run longer than we would like. Imagine wagering on the presidential race back in 2000 and having to wait that long for results to be in. I'd hate to have money tied up that long, but know that these questions don't always settle immediately.

well I think hubdub should have plainly just said they are still awaiting the results...that is all .............
