US Election Odds: Kamala Harris overtakes Joe Biden in Next President Market

US Election Odds: Kamala Harris overtakes Joe Biden in Next President Market

Kamala Harris has overtaken Joe Biden in the 2024 US Election betting market as second favourite with some sportsbooks.

Yesterday, Kamala Harris was a whopping 25/1 in the next US President odds market, but in the last 24 hours those odds have been cut to as short as 5/1 (6/1 best price on Betfred).

There are question marks around Joe Biden’s ability to run for the Election following his debate with Donald Trump last week. 

This has caused Joe Biden’s odds to drift to 7/1 to win the US Election. This is the highest we’ve seen Joe Biden’s odds since the market opened. 

Donald Trump remains the favourite to win the 2024 Election, with his odds sitting at 8/13 which implies he’s got a 62% chance of winning the election.

Oddschecker spokesperson Sam Eaton said: “This is the most drastic odds movement we’ve seen in the market since it opened following Joe Biden’s win in 2020.

Joe Biden is now odds-against to be the Democratic candidate, which is astonishing given he was 1/16 to be the candidate at the start of June, which implied a 94% chance he would be running.

“Joe Biden’s odds to be the Democratic Candidate now stand at 6/4 (best price 13/8 on Betway), which imply he’s got around a 40% chance of taking on Donald Trump."

Eaton continued: “Kamala Harris has seen her Democratic Candidate odds cut from 40/1 to as short as 13/8 in the last month. This implies her chance of running has gone from 2.4% to 38%.

"Despite Kamala Harris overtaking Joe Biden in the 2024 US Election winner market, she remains behind him in the Democratic Candidate odds market, which implies sportsbooks think she's got a better chance of beating Donald Trump if she does run."
