Joe Biden is enjoying his strongest support from punters so far in the race for the White House as Donald Trump rejected the idea of a virtual debate on Thursday.
The commission in charge of next week’s debate scheduled for Miami said it would have to take place remotely as the White House deals with a number of positive Covid-19 tests, including one from Trump himself.
But the sitting President rubbished the idea saying it would ‘protect’ his opponent, while his campaign have indicated they will hold a rally at the same time instead.
The latest spat in the election battle, however, is doing nothing for Trump’s chances of a second four years in the Oval Office, with BoyleSports easing his odds further on Thursday out to 13/8 having started the week at 11/10.
Biden, on the other hand, is now a strong 1/2 odds-on favourite from 5/6 at the start of the week.
A couple of expected swing states are proving close calls as the pair cannot be separated in Ohio at 10/11 apiece, although the Democrats have edged ahead in the Florida betting at 8/11 from 5/6.
