As Kamala Harris and Donald Trump battle it out to become the 47th US President, who is predicted to win?
With President Biden dropping out of the presidential race, the betting markets for the US Presidential Election Winner have taken on a new complexion.
Following Biden's endorsement of Kamala Harris as his replacement, praising his decision to choose her as his Vice President as the best one he has made, her odds have improved significantly. Once as long as 9/2 (before Biden's decision to drop out the race), her odds are now a best price of 13/10 to become the next US President.
Donald Trump, meanwhile, will have to rethink his campaign strategy. His previous approach of portraying himself as a strong leader compared to a weak Joe Biden has been upended by Biden's decision to step aside. Currently, Trump's odds to secure a second term are a best price of 8/11 at bet365.

US Presidential Election Predictions
Since President Biden announced he would not be running in the upcoming November elections, Kamala Harris has garnered significant attention, capturing 42% of the total bets made through Oddschecker on the next U.S. President. Interestingly, bettors are equally split, with Donald Trump also receiving 42% of the bets.
In the week before Biden's withdrawal, the betting landscape looked quite different. Trump led with 57% of the total bets, while Biden and Harris lagged behind at 13% and 12%, respectively.
This shift indicates that bettors perceive the Democratic Party as having a better chance of victory with Harris as their candidate.
Biden had faced several challenges, including gaffes such as mistakenly referring to Vice-President Harris as "Vice-President Trump" and a poor debate performance.
Adding to this perspective, Professor Allan Lichtman of American University, who has accurately predicted nearly every presidential election since President Reagan's reelection in 1984, has weighed in.
Using his model, which evaluates thirteen factors or "keys," Lichtman currently projects that Kamala Harris is on track for a victory.
