http://www.intrade.com/v4/markets/contract/?contractId=745937

Did any curvy line ever make you smile as much as the sharp decline in Brown's intrade numbers?

He has been consistently over 50 for the last 6 months.

He has been well over 60 for the last month.

After the debate there was a big sell of and he is now at 42.

Actually, Brown started falling steeply before the debate Blue Yorker Sep 2012 #3
I assume this makes Warren's Intrade score 58 Submariner Sep 2012 #5
59.4 - they are done as two independent markets so they are not forced to add karynnj Sep 2012 #6
How come Warren doesn't get her photo on there like Brown does? n/t TroyD Sep 2012 #7

He was at 57 a couple of weeks ago, and he fell off when the 4 polls showing Warren ahead came out.

So his decline actually started before the debate.

In my opinion due to the many polls where Warren had a lead, even before the debate.
The debate was Sept. 21, I believe.

to 100. (though obviously, it would be weird to be far off).
