Is voting for the far-right a form of gambling?

I have only ever placed two bets in my life, both on Irish elections (and in particular the demise of recumbent parties), both won to the tune of about €200.

Best bet ever would have been a grand on Hillary, take the early payoff and then put it on Trump.

lol. A step too far. Polls have been unerringly accurate and the margins are nowhere near as close.

Dont ruin your record.

Was going to add, if not this time, then next time! But didn't want to muddy the water

No, I wouldnt do that, and who knows what might happen, but Brexit polling was in the margin of error. 538 gave Trump a 1/3 chance.

Le Pen has, to be generous, a 3% chance. She's nearly 30 points down.

she definitely has one more chance after this election, particularly/obviously if he screws up or doesn't accomplish much and terrorist attacks continue.
