US presidential odds and ends: PaddyPower starts paying punters who bet on Clinton

The Election Day is still three weeks away, but Irish betting site PaddyPower is already sure of Clinton’s victory that it is already paying out $1.1 million to those who bet on the Democratic nominee.

According to PaddyPower, Clinton has an 85.7 percent chance of winning the elections, while Trump’s campaign—for all intents and purposes—is already dead with 18.2 percent chances of victory.

In fact, the betting site confirmed to CNN Money that it has paid some 6,000 British and Irish gamblers who placed their bets on Clinton before 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The biggest bet on Clinton was $61,485.

“The recent flood of revelations have halted [Trump’s] momentum and his chances now look as patchy as his tan,” PaddyPower said in a blog post.
