None

NEW YORK - Online trading platform PredictIt and bookermaker Paddy Power showed a massive reversal of fortune for the US presidential candidates Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton Tuesday night, with the New York businessman's chances of taking the White House skyrocketing on both.

 

Trump stunned many political experts, showing a slight edge on Clinton in several swing states after voting had ended in more than two-thirds of the 50 US states.

 

Paddy Power put Trump's chance of victory at 83.3 percent Tuesday and Clinton's at 22.2 percent. The two had been in essentially opposite positions on Tuesday morning.
