    Politics data

    Hi there,

    I'm trying to find historical Politics data. I'm guessing this should be in "Other Sports". But as an example, I downloaded those files matching Mar 2-14 2020, and none of the following strings are found in the files:
    - nevada
    - primary
    - caucus

    The only matches for `iowa` have these as marketDescription:
    "Iowa Hawkeyes @ Illinois Fighting Illini"
    "Iowa State Cyclones @ Kansas State Wildcats"
    "Purdue Boilermakers @ Iowa Hawkeyes"
    "West Virginia Mountaineers @ Iowa State Cyclones"

    So where would I find the historical data for these markets:
    - Politics / Nevada Caucus : Democratic Nevada Caucus Winner; settled Feb 25
    - Politics / South Carolina Primary : Democratic South Carolina Primary Winner; settled Mar 1
    - Politics / Iowa Caucus : Democratic Iowa Caucus Winner; settled Mar 2

    Thanks in advance

    Wasting your time because there will be very little matched on these type of markets.

      Currently Democratic Nominee has £19M matched, and Next President has £23M matched.

      Regardless, that's not the question: are the historical prices available?

        Why?
        What would it tell you, is it for trading?

              Any thoughts here, Betfair team? Is this data supposed to exist in Other Sports?
