2024 Presidential Election Odds
2023-10-26
[TheLines] Who Will Be The Next US President?

Former President Donald Trump is once again the favorite at most sportsbooks to win the Presidency in 2024. Trump has around +160 election odds for US President. Incumbent US President Joe Biden is now around +200 at most sportsbooks with California Gov. Gavin Newsom (+1200) and former First Lady Michelle Obama (+1600) also in the mix.

Biden had been Presidential betting favorite for most of the year. Trump’s odds to win again have actually improved following three separate indictments. Trump had had been around +350 to win at most books prior to the Manhattan indictment in March. He had +275 election odds in July and was +225 on August 2 after being indicted for efforts to overturn the election three years ago.

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION ODDS 2024 (OCTOBER 24)
Here is a look at odds to win US President in 2024. Election odds 2024 have Donald Trump at +160. Joe Biden is +200 and Michelle Obama is +1600. View Election betting odds for those candidates and more below.

CURRENT POLITICAL LANDSCAPE
Falling on 2024 Presidential odds boards in the past few months have been anti-vaxxer Robert Kennedy Jr. and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. RFK Jr. had the third shortest odds, behind Biden and Trump, during the late summer months. DeSantis, meanwhile, had actually been the overall betting favorite at times during the first half of this year.

Biden remains the likely Democratic nominee despite struggling in polls. So far in US history, no major party has ever opted not to renominate an incumbent when he’s been eligible for reelection.

That’s partially because ousting an incumbent president has proven very difficult in US history. Prior to 2020, it hadn’t happened in nearly 30 years.
And then the analysis become more detailed. Makes me very glad I’m not a betting woman — I’d never keep all that straight.

#3  Does the odds methodology also factor in who's counting the votes?

Bookies can't afford to be wrong about such things. Biden might be finished. We can only hope.
