2020 US Presidential Odds
Donald Trump’s first year and a half of office was, by virtually any metric, a complete and absolute disaster. The POTUS has assaulted the intelligence community, jeopardized relationships with America’s longest-standing allies, endorsed alleged sexual predators, and controlled the forcible separation of children from their families.
Despite his most scathing scandals and controversies, Trump somehow stays the overwhelming favorite to win the next US Presidential election in 2020. The Donald’s present average odds of +110 are 990 points better than his next closest competition. That is not just a gap — it is yawning chasm — and it could get even wider unless something changes soon.
June 28, 2019: Donald Trump is still favored to win the 2020 Election with -120 average odds, however Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren are gaining ground. Harris’ average US Presidential chances went from +1300 on June 10th to +820 on June 28th and Warren’s went from +1700 to +1100 within the exact same time period.
June 10, 2019: Andrew Yang is emerging as a genuine contender with +2100 chances.
