Former President Donald Trump has once again become the favorite to win the election over Vice President Kamala Harris, according to betting odds on BetOnline. Trump is currently a -130 favorite, while Harris is the +110 underdog. The shift in odds comes after Trump surpassed Harris in national polls, with the New York Times/Siena poll showing Trump leading Harris 48-47 among likely voters.
According to electionbettingodds.com, Trump has a 50.8% chance of winning back the White House, making him the -103 favorite. Harris, on the other hand, has a 47.1% chance, making her the +112 underdog. Betting on politics is not permitted at U.S. sportsbooks, but offshore sportsbooks like BetOnline offer odds on political events.
The first presidential debate between Trump and Harris is expected to have a major impact on the election odds. Harris is currently a heavy -300 favorite to win the debate, with Trump as a 2-1 underdog. Political oddsmaker Paul Krishnamurty believes that sharp market moves may occur during the debate, as was the case during previous debates.
Overall, the odds favor Trump to win the election over Harris, but the debate could potentially shift the odds in Harris’ favor. The outcome of the debate will likely play a significant role in shaping public perception and could ultimately influence the election outcome.
