The certification process is what gives you the projected electoral college votes. Many states aren’t even done counting the initial vote yet, let alone having recounted or certified so I don’t get how anyone could have a reasonable expectation of getting paid already.

Not the way “projected electoral votes” has ever been used in the past in the context of US Presidential elections, but I will grant that the BetFair bets terms are imprecise enough that they could mean anything.
