(expired)Ladbrokes: US Election, Financial Betting & WC Qualifiers

US Presidential Elections
On November 4, America picks a new president. The Republican Party candidate is John McCain, the, Senator from Arizona as its nominee; the Democratic Party has chosen Barack Obama, Senator from Illinois, as its nominee.

The 2008 election is the first time in U.S. history that two sitting senators will run against each other for president, and because it is the first time an African American is a presidential nominee for a major party with African American candidate Barack Obama, who is of mixed African and Caucasian parentage.

The eventual winning ticket is very likely to have a historic context, as either the first African American will be elected President along with the first Roman Catholic as Vice President or the oldest President (McCain is 72 years old) will be elected with the first woman Vice President.

Ladbrokes are running a market on the eventual winner!
