Irish bookmaker Paddy Power has paid out its customers who backed Hillary Clinton to win next month's presidential election.
With less than three weeks to go until polling day, the firm declared that Donald Trump's White House bid had imploded and had very little chance of moving into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in January.
The bookmaker claimed customers had been lumping on the former First Lady in the past week as Donald Trump's campaign became embroiled in a succession of scandals over his conduct.

Oh, sure. I believe this.
So if they are so certain that it is all over, what kind of odds is Paddy Power giving now? 1,000 to 1 against Trump? We would never need another Freepathon! (These clowns must be Kennedy family or O’Bama Irish.)
IF this is true (big if) the bookie will wind up paying out the Trump betters as well.
Good plan!
They pay out early for the publicity, and No, they don’t get it wrong.
No bookie pays out for a result that hasn’t occurred.
Unless they are utterly retarded.
Paddy Power is famous for over-the-top public relations schemes. They sponsored Dennis Rodman’s trip to North Korea as well.

I would think that you would pay them out now as the odds are in their favor for the value of the payout right now the odds are 2:11 for Hillary and 9:2 for Trump.
Pay them out and keep your shirt.
Is there any chance that some big financier backed him up in order to get another “Trump is doomed so just give up” story? Bookies don’t make money by taking big risks like this with their own money.
Sounds like he does not want to take any more bets for Hillary.
Must believe the dem over-sampled polls.

ROTFL!
Bookies aren’t God. Yes, they can be “wrong.”
Knick Nack Paddy Whack this bookmaker just threw out a bone...what a marroon...
Or unless they were paid the cost of the payout plus a bonus for the publicity. It's part of the pretense that the election is over and conservatives might as well give up, $200k well spent by the standards of America's enemies.
And male bovine excrement.
