Kamala Harris is now the odds-on favourite to be the next US President
Betting odds continue to be offered on the US Presidential Election with the latest odds from betting sites now putting Democratic candidate Kamala Harris as the odds-on favourite.
Harris and Donald Trump have constantly switched places at the top of the betting market in the past couple of months following a number of different situations that have flipped the odds around.
The failed assassination attempt on Trump back in July instantly saw him move into odds-on to win the US Presidential Election with the former President looking unbeatable at the time.
That all changed though with the 10 September debate where Harris looked extremely impressive against Trump and Trump has even turned down another debate on 23 October, saying it was "too late" as voting has already started.
Bet365's latest odds now have kept Harris as the odds-on favourite with the latest chance of winning sitting at 55.6%.
| US Presidential Election 2024 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Kamala Harris | 4/5 | 55.6% |
| Donald Trump | 1/1 | 50.0% |
What the expert says..
Donald Trump evens in the betting market with 50% chance of being voted in once again
Despite Harris being favourite to win the US Presidential Election it is an extremely tight situation at the top of the betting market with Donald Trump only slightly behind in the market.
Trump is currently evens to win the election in November with bookmakers giving an implied probability of 50% that the former President is voted in for a second time.
The former President led the United States from 2016-2020 before being beaten by Joe Biden at the last election and he will be looking to have his second stint in the role if he wins in November.
