If you are planning on betting Trump, the time in now to pounce on the opportunity. Trump odds have moved from 6-4 to 7-4, which means he has about a 37% chance at election, according to oddsmakers.

“Even though the bookmakers think Donald Trump’s chances of winning the 2020 election have decreased, online sports bettors firmly disagree,” an Oddschecker spokesperson said.

“A whopping 75 percent of all bets placed on the US election [on Wednesday] have been on Donald Trump winning, with just 24 percent being wagered on Joe Biden. The extra 1 percent is made up of few speculative bets on Mike Pence and Kamala Harris.”

Nearly $200m has already been spent on the election with betting provider Betfair, but much more is expected to flow in before election day.

It appears as if the Presidential Election is the new Super Bowl. I love a nice wager as much as the next guy, but I can’t see myself betting on the next president. All the power to the bettors, though.
