Am I misunderstanding? I think that’s trivially not true. Consider:

Joe Dart elected president Y/N

Cory Wong elected president Y/N

A no bet on Joe Dart is not a yes bet on Cory Wong.

Did you read the link? A NO bet on Joe Dart is a YES bet on Cory Wong + Others.

It is trivial. Saying NO to a candidate means you're saying YES to ALL other candidates with varying probabilities that would sum to the neg risk of that NO bet.
