OnlineCasinoNews.com is reporting that PinnacleSports.com has just released the first set of odds on the upcoming election.

Despite their fall from grace, the Liberals are still tipped to win both the most seats (at 2/5) and defeat Stephen Harper’s Conservatives in January’s vote as a 12.5 seat favourite.

Simon Noble of PinnacleSports.com, said, ‘’Despite all of the recent controversy, the polls indicate that the Liberals will gain the most seats in this historic election, but with little chance of gaining an overall majority.’

Specific matchups are as follows:

Tony Ianno vs Olivia Chow
Tony Ianno +150
Olivia Chow -160

Carolyn Bennett vs Peter Kent
Carolyn Bennett -10000 votes -110
Peter Kent +10000 votes +100

Jack Layton vs Deborah Coyne
Jack Layton -6000 votes -120
Deborah Coyne +6000 votes +110

Belinda Stronach vs Lois Brown
Belinda Stronach -383
Lois Brown +353

Svend Robinson vs Hedy Fry
Svend Robinson -150
Hedy Fry +140

To note - Belinda is more favored money than Layton, despite the vote spread. Awesome. Link…
