With less than 30 days until November 5th, former President Donald Trump Sr. has taken the lead, well not exactly, but he is leading the odds board as the favorite to win the 2024 U.S. Presidential election.
Last week, Democratic candidate for President Kamala Harris was leading the odds at -125 to Trump’s +100. However, after Harris’s ABC interview and Trump’s return to Butler, PA., the odds have shifted.
Trump’s return to Butler, Pa., where a lone gunman tried and failed to assassinate the former President, marked a historical move in his campaign. The crowd was ecstatic that he would return to the crime scene; however, there was more bulletproof glass and a heightened sense of security this time.
Harris participated in a 60-minute interview as part of her recent media blitz, during which she was drilled on political issues, including abortion, the war in the Middle East, her policies, and illegal immigration. Harris has also recently appeared on popular podcasts, late-night TV shows, and more.
Betting On The Presidential Election Outcome
Betting on the Presidential election is available at online sportsbooks, which offer odds on everything from the general election to special political props. Since domestic sportsbooks are barred from offering political odds, U.S. bettors only have online options.

Is Betting On US Politics Legal?
U.S. bettors can legally bet on U.S. politics and international politics, with online sportsbooks operating legally from their jurisdiction. Since domestic sportsbooks are forbidden from offering political odds, U.S. bettors can only bet online with sites outside the United States.
Federal gambling laws do not forbid online sports betting but allow states to decide what gambling options can be accessed online. Currently, 38 states and Washington D.C. have authorized in-person sports betting. However, only 30 states plus D.C. have authorized online sports betting.
