bought Ṁ750 R +2.0 to +2.9 YES

1.2+1.5 = 2.7
1.2+1.75 = 2.95
so polymarket puts R + 2.95 or less at roughtly 88%. probably definitely more than R + 2, so R +2 to +2.9(5 since rounding to nearest 0.1) should be around 88%, and R + 3 to 3.9 should be around 12%

I don't trust this analysis enough to buy it to 88% uh

To clarify, this is popular vote - polling average, such that if the polling underestimates Dems, this resolves to one of the D options?

Correct.
