Florida Man Who Made $100 Bet on Trump Winning Election Sued for Refusing To Pay [View all]
A man from Florida who wagered $100 on President Donald Trump winning re-election last November is being sued for refusing to pay up.
Sean Hynes, a Trump supporter from St. Petersburg, Pinellas Count, suggested the bet via Facebook to Jeffrey Costa, an acquaintance from his time in Atlanta and a Biden supporter.
(Snip)
Although it started as a friendly wager, the relationship quickly turned sour when Trump lost to Biden on November 3.
Hynes refused to acknowledge the results and pay up. He was still in denial after several state recounts and the Supreme Court's rejection of lawsuits challenging Biden's victory.
