Note that sportsbooks in the United States are not permitted to offer odds on the Presidential Election. However, legal online sportsbooks like bet365 and DraftKings which operate in Canada are allowed to offer political markets to customers north of the border. Additionally, UK and European sportsbooks have a long history of political futures.

Odds for Biden, Harris Continue to Languish

Embattled incumbent Joe Biden saw his odds take another hit on Sunday. Biden, who was a +160 favorite late in 2023, has dropped all the way to +525 as of July 14, though that is slightly better than his odds directly after his disastrous debate performance on June 27 (+600), when many speculated he would drop out of the race.

Biden’s Vice-President, Kamala Harris, was briefly the favorite among Democrats after the debate, her odds to win the presidency in November improving as far as +400 as of July 3. But like Biden, her odds dropped on Sunday, fading to +800 to become the first female President in American history.

The political futures at bet365 list almost 20 other potential candidates on the board. But, among those, only Robert Kennedy Jr is officially in the race at this time, running as an independent after failing to wrest the Democratic nomination from Biden.
