2024 US Presidential Election Odds: Donald Trump declares victory
Update: 06.11.24
Donald Trump has declared victory in the 2024 US presidential election with the Republicans also projected to win the Senate.
Donald Trump will become the 47th president of the United States after brushing aside Kamala Harris in what was a closely-fought campaign.
Speaking on stage in West Palm Beach, Florida, he said:
“I want to thank you all very much.
“Frankly I believe this was the greatest political movement of all time,” he says, adding it’s now going to go to another level.
“We have a country that needs help very badly,” he adds, promising to “fix everything”.
“It’s clear that… this is a political victory,” he adds.
“I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honour of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president,” he says, effectively claiming victory.
“This is a magnificent victory for the American people that will allow us to make America great again.”
At the time of writing, Trump isn’t officially confirmed as the next president of the United States but having secured three battleground states, he looks to have secured for himself a belated second term in office
Update: 04.11.24
Americans go to the polls tomorrow and as we move past the final stages of campaigning, Donald Trump is clear favourite to win the election.
Election day almost here
Tomorrow is election day in the United States and both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are busy delivering their final pitches in the key battleground states which could prove pivotal in determining who wins the presidency. As the big day approaches, Donald Trump is big favourite to win another term in office with some bookmakers going as low as 7/10 that the former president makes a return to the White House (best odds 4/6) while Kamala Harris is a best price of 13/10 (lowest odds 6/5) to become the first female president of the USA.
Closely-fought
This is a very tight and closely-fought contest which in reality could go either way. The forecasters’ opinion polls can provide us with a useful indication as to how the nation might vote in the election but they’re a far from accurate way to predict the outcome. The reason for this is because the USA uses the electoral college system whereby each individual state is handed a certain number of votes which corresponds to the population size. 538 electoral college votes are being fought for here and a winning candidate will be the one who gets over 270 of these.
Polls extremely tight
Most of the 50 US states vote for the same party each time but there are a few where there is a chance of it going either way. These are swing states or battleground states and as far as these are concerned, the polls are extremely tight, just a couple of points separating Trump and Harris at most.
Update: 24.10.24
Donald Trump is now favourite to win the 2024 US Presidential Election.
Favourite in all seven swing states
Five separate forecasters believe that Donald Trump will win the 2024 US Elections which take place in around two weeks’ time. Indeed, while Kamala Harris is ahead of her rival in all five forecasters’ polling averages, this suggests that she may well win the popular vote but lose the election. Indeed, for the first time in the election, Trump is favourite in all seven swing states and the former president’s momentum is continuing as the big day approaches.

(odds correct as of Thursday, 24th October 2024)
7/10 – Donald Trump
7/5 – Kamala Harris
Update: 09.10.24
The 2024 US Presidential Election is now just a few weeks away with Kamala Harris and Donald Trump neck-and-neck in the race for the White House.
US voters go to the polls in less than four weeks’ time in order to elect the next President of the United States and initially this election was set to be a rematch between Joe Biden and Donald Trump but this was upended when Biden pulled out of the running in July and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris.
The key question is, will Donald Trump get a second term in office or will the USA get a first woman president?
Since she entered the race, Harris has enjoyed a small lead in the national polling averages and following a head-to-head televised debate last month, numerous polls suggested that Harris’ performances had resulted in her making small gains. Nevertheless, Trump’s average had been rising ahead of the TV debate and while it fell slightly soon after, it has been on the rise again.
As far as the betting markets are concerned, Trump is favourite to win the election but only slightly. This really is neck-and-neck with both candidates odds-on with many bookmakers. Trump is a best price of 19/20 to get a second term in office (lowest odds 4/5) while Kamala Harris is best odds of 21/20 (lowest price 10/11) to become the first woman US president.

(odds correct as of Wednesday, 9th October 2024)
19/20 – Donald Trump
21/20 – Kamala Harris
Update: 24.09.24
The race to be named next president of the United States continues and Donald Trump has stated that in the event that he loses, he won’t expect to run for election again in 2028.
The 78-year-old has been the Republican candidate for three elections on the bounce and there can be no doubt that he has completely reshaped the party during that time. He maintains that he will be successful this time around but he has also made it clear that in the event that he loses, he won’t run again in 2028. Indeed, even if he beats Kamala Harris, Trump won’t be allowed to run in four years’ time with US law barring any president from serving more than two terms.
In the key US battleground states which may well be pivotal in determining the final result in the 2024 US election, Kamala Harris has a slight lead over Donald Trump of 51% to 49%. This is a marginal improvement over the 50/50 percentage split in a similar poll from a few weeks ago. Indeed, while some polls give Harris a larger lead over her rival, others suggested that Trump had a big advantage with US voters on important issues such as the cost of living, immigration and the economy.
In the betting markets, Harris has a slight lead over her adversary with some firms going as low as 4/5 that she becomes the first woman to become US president (biggest price 5/6) while Donald Trump is priced at Evens with most betting operators (highest odds 11/10).

Update: 17.09.24
Things are hotting up in the race to be named next president of the United States and we edge ever closer to the date when Americans go to the polls, Kamala Harris has overtaken Donald Trump in the betting markets and has taken the lead in the popular vote.
As the 2024 US Presidential Election creeps ever closer, Kamala Harris finds herself leading Trump in the popular vote. Six different opinion polls show the Democrat candidate between 2% and 5% ahead of her rival although a handful were within the error margin.
Harris and Trump went head-to-head in a live TV debate covering such things as illegal immigration and abortion, the Democrat emerging victorious in a CNN pool carried out immediately afterwards with 63 of viewers responding in her favour. On the back of her perceived triumph in the debate, the bookmakers shortened the odds on Harris winning the 2024 US Presidential Election with some firms going as low as 4/5 (best odds 5/6).
In contrast, Donald Trump is a best price of 11/10 (lowest odds Evens) to return to the White House. The surge in the popular support that Harris has enjoyed following the withdrawal of President Joe Biden from the contest has sent her onto the lead, both in terms of the popular vote and also the states which could prove crucial in the age of very close elections and small margins between the parties.
Update: 12.09.24
Neck-and-neck
Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are neck-and-neck in the polls, however the Democrat has edged past Trump following the live TV debate earlier this week and she is now odds-on to become the next US President.
Pivotal
This televised live debate may prove to be pivotal in the race to be named 47th president of the USA and with Kamala Harris’ upward trajectory in the pools having peaked, this was an excellent opportunity for her to retake the momentum. Indeed, with the honeymoon seemingly over for Harris but the bookies still making her odds-on to win the 2024 US Presidential Election, there’s every chance that her odds could shorten even further in coming days and weeks.
Odds-on favourite
At the time of writing, Kamala Harris is priced at best odds of 10/11 to win the 2024 US Presidential Election (lowest odds 4/5) while Donald Trump is close behind at a best price of 21/20 (lowest odds Evens). Harris won the Democrat nomination in straightforward fashion but she has relatively little time to unite the party and fire up voters ahead of the rapidly approaching US election.

Update: 19.08.24
Next President
Americans will go to the polls on 5th November 2024 as they elect their next president and while it seemed initially that this match-up would be between the same two candidates as last time – namely Democrat Joe Biden and Republican Donald Trump – a disastrous debate performance by the former has paved the way for vice president Kamala Harris to enter the fray in his place.
Overtaken in the betting markets
Harris is closer to Donald Trump in the polls as her predecessor was and she has now overtaken the former President in the betting markets.
Work in her favour
Biden’s term in office has been defined by overseas turmoil, large industrial-policy bills and rampant inflation, however Harris has a massive advantage over Biden, namely her age. At the age of 59 she is over 18 years younger than Trump and over two decades younger than Biden. This could work well in her favour.
First female President
At the time of writing, Kamala Harris is odds-on to take office as the first female US president at a best price of 10/11, while Donald Trump has slipped to best odds of 11/10 to return to the White House.

Update: 23.07.24
News that Kamala Harris has received enough support to allow her to be nominated as Democrat candidate has had an impact on the betting markets for the 2024 US Presidential Election.
Kamala Harris will now go head-to-head with Donald Trump in the battle for the US presidency and this has had a slight impact on the betting markets. Donald Trump remains big favourite to be the next President of the USA at a best price of 8/13 but this is a considerable drift from the 2/5 on offer just a few days ago, prior to Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the race. Indeed, just a few days ago some bookmakers were going as low as 1/4 that Trump would return to office once Biden’s term comes to an end, however the lowest price available now is 4/9.
The Democrats have received a surge in donations on the back of Joe Biden’s announcement and these are set to continue as the election edges ever closer. The odds on Kamala Harris becoming the next US President have shortened from 9/4 to a best price of 15/8 on the back of her receiving sufficient support from delegates.
Elsewhere in the betting, former First Lady Michelle Obama is a 70/1 shot to become next US President while Robert Kennedy Jr and J D Vance complete the top five in the betting at best odds of 80/1 and 100/1 respectively.
The 2024 US Presidential Elections get underway on Tuesday, 5th November 2024.

Update: 22.07.24
Democrats have heaved a sigh of relief following Joe Biden’s decision to exit the 2024 US Presidential Election race. Many senior democrats have decided to throw their weight behind Kamala Harris, whom Biden himself has endorsed to be the party’s presidential candidate.
Following Biden’s decision to drop out of the race, there has been a huge surge in donations to the Democrat party and the betting markets for the 2024 US Presidential Elections have shifted noticeably on the back of this latest development.
Trump remains firm favourite to become the next president of the USA at a best price of 8/15 (lowest odds 4/9), representing a noticeable drift in the betting. Kamara Harris is next in the market at a best price of 9/1 (lowest odds 7/4) while Michelle Obama is third favourite at best odds of 20/1.

Former US President Donald Trump is favourite to return to office in the US Presidential Election 2024 with most leading bookmakers slashing his odds on victory to a best price of 2/5. (odds correct as of 18.07.24)
The odds on Donald Trump winning the 2024 US Presidential Election have once again shortened on the back of the failed assassination attempt earlier this month, further cementing his position as the clear favourite in the market.
Indeed, some bookies go just 1/4 that the 45th US president wins the 2024 Us Presidential Election and his reported 51% backing was the largest share of the vote ever achieved in a contested Iowa caucus in January. His Iowa win earlier this year came hot on the heels of a Colorado court ruling that Trump be removed from the state ballot due to him inciting an insurrection, this ruling coming under the 14th amendment of the US constitution.
Trump is now a best price of just 1/2 (lowest odds 1/4) to become the next president of the USA, way ahead of current premier Joe Biden who is third in the market at 8/1 behind second favourite Kamala Harris (5/1 best odds). This is the biggest gap between the Trump and Biden in the market since 2022 and Trump has been dominant in the betting since 19th December.
The surprise fourth favourite in the betting market is Michelle Obama at a best price of 25/1 to become the first female president of the USA.
