Labour are odds-on at 2/5 to win the Selby and Ainsty By-Election later this month
By-Election betting continues to grow in popularity with more and more constituencies up for grabs with resignations happening across the Conservative Party last month.
UK Betting Sites are offering odds on the Selby and Ainsty By-Election following the resignation of Conservative MP Nigel Adams towards the beginning of June.
The Labour Party are 2/5 to win the votes in Selby and Ainsty with their candidate announced as 25-year-old Keir Mather who said it was "time for change" in his announcement speech.
The Selby and Ainsty By-Election is pencilled in for July 20 with a By-Election in Uxbridge and South Ruislip also taking place on the same day.

Conservatives are 6/4 to regain their seat following Nigel Adams resignation
Despite a By-Election being held for Selby and Ainsty it may still be that the Conservatives regain their seat after Nigel Adams decided to retire from his role.
The latest betting odds say that there's a 40% chance of the Conservatives winning with Labour's chances at 71% according to the latest betting market.
Claire Holmes will be the candidate for the Conservative Party this time around with other parties including the Official Monster Raving Loony Party going for the seat.
Further by-election betting odds available
Betting is also available for other seats that are up for grabs in the next round of By-Elections including in Mid Bedfordshire with the Liberal Democrats favourite for that seat.
Nadine Dorries decided to resign from her seat back at the beginning of June and in doing so triggered a by-election in her seat with opinion polls putting Labour as favourites.
Despite those opinion polls though, Labour are the third favourites to win that seat with the latest betting odds putting them out to 11/4 in the market.
Reports in The Telegraph show that a survey states that Labour would be the ones to overturn Dorries' 24,664 majority seat that has been held by the Tory party since 1931.
