Anyone with Internets to spare.
Two main issues with some bets so far: First, only Internets are valid for bets. Anything else will be confiscated for the site's use. This affects the following bets:

500 says obama wins popular vote but almost loses electoral college vote
"Almost loses" means that (the winner's electoral college votes) - 270 = (less than the electoral votes of the largest "swing state" he won), swing states being CO, FL, IA, NV, NH, NC, OH, PA, VA, and WI or any "decided" state which reverses its predicted choice. Also, as worded, this is a bet on two things considered together: Obama winning the popular vote, and Obama "almost losing" the electoral college vote. Unless you want to split these with their own bets, it will not be a part of the regular election betting pool.

This is also two things: that Romney will win Florida, and that it will be because of GOP voter suppression (i.e. that people affected by recent Republican policies there will be more numerous than Romney's margin of victory)
