California Sen. Kamala Harris, who Monday entered the 2020 presidential race, is tied for the Democratic primary lead with former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke, but President Trump is still favored to win a second term, according to the latest odds.
According to BetOnline.ag, Harris and O’Rourke are tied at 8-to-1 odds to win the presidency.
Trump has the edge, and has for months, with 7-to-4 odds, said BetOnline.
Harris, in fact, has been the Democrat bet on the most in the gambling service, showing good interest in her candidacy.
BetOnline.ag’s sportsbook brand manager Dave Mason said, “Kamala Harris has been the most bet Democrat to date, with Biden close behind.” In June 2017, Harris’ odds were 33/1.
He said, however, that more than 10 times the bets have come in for Trump than Harris and former Vice President Joe Biden, who is at 14-to-1. “We have learned it doesn’t matter what he does, what he tweets, or who he offends. Bettors are still pounding him at plus money.”
The top odds are below.
