1) OK, one final update to TRUMP contracts:
help.ftx.com/hc/en-us/artic
ftx.com/trade/TRUMPFEB has listed!

3) The current TRUMP (ftx.com/trade/TRUMP) settles if either:
a) someone reaches 270 electoral votes
b) all of {The New York Times, 538, 270toWin, Fox, CNN} have called the race
In that case, TRUMP --> $0 and BIDEN --> $1, or vice versa.
Otherwise, it expires in 2021.

4) If you had a TRUMP or BIDEN position settling to $0 (or short settling to $1), you can -- if you want -- pay $0.10 to convert it into a TRUMPFEB.
ftx.com/trade/TRUMPFEB is a future that expires in Feb 2021 to $1 if Trump is president on 2020-02-01, and $0 otherwise.

6) Note that this is already more favorable to long TRUMP positions than the initial rules, which would have already expired it to $0: both it _hasn't_ expired yet, and even if it does you can pay $0.10 to extent until Feb, if you want.

7) And, of course, note that ftx.com/trade/TRUMP might very well _not_ expire before February either: it all depends on whether the election is, in fact, called soon, or whether it remains up in the air for a while.

how long do we have if we already have trump win to extend it for .10 until feb?

so far don't need to do anything -- *if* the election is called, then you'll have 3 days after that to extend

Sounds great! and all the news outlets has to call it? Not just one or two call the election right?
