The Odds Are In: Kamala Harris Favored as the Next Democratic Presidential Candidate

In a surprising turn of events, Joe Biden has dropped out of the presidential race only hours ago. However, the oddsmakers are already hard at work, releasing new betting lines for the Democratic presidential and vice-presidential picks. BetOnline, an offshore betting company, has quickly adjusted its odds, with Kamala Harris emerging as the clear favorite for the next Democratic presidential candidate. With overwhelming 1 to 9 odds in her favor, it seems almost certain that Kamala Harris is destined for the top spot.

Despite some other noteworthy candidates such as California Governor Gavin Newsom, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, and former First Lady Michelle Obama, Kamala Harris remains lightyears ahead in the odds. The betting site has established such a significant lead for Harris that it appears no one else comes close to her chances of securing the Democratic nomination.

While the focus is primarily on who Harris will select as her potential vice-presidential candidate, BetOnline is already making educated guesses. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro is currently the favorite for the VP slot, with odds of 7 to 4 in his favor. Shapiro’s recent national attention, particularly following the attempt on Donald Trump’s life in Pennsylvania, has propelled him into the spotlight as a formidable candidate for the position.

In a more whimsical turn, BetOnline has included some colorful picks for the VP slot, such as George Clooney with odds of 100 to 1, former University of Alabama football coach Nick Saban at 250 to 1 odds, and Oprah Winfrey also at 250 to 1 odds. While these choices may seem far-fetched, they add an element of excitement to the speculation surrounding the Democratic ticket.

As the race heats up, BetOnline has also provided insights into the overall odds of winning the presidency, with Trump currently holding better odds (1 to 2) than Harris (2 to 1). However, with more than 100 days to go before the election, there is still plenty of time for opinions to shift. With the Democrats having a few weeks to solidify their choices, the time to place your bets is now before the odds inevitably change once again.
