F.Y.I.

Check out http://www.biz.uiowa.edu/iem .

It's an experimental on-line futures market for speculating on the outcomes
of elections.

It has been successful in predicting the percentage vote outcome of the last

Unfortunately, they only include Republicans, Democrats, Reform Party, and
Nader.
