We take a look at Kamala Harris Next US President odds after Joe Biden announced that he will no longer be seeking re-election.
Kamala Harris Next US President Odds
Kamala Harris is 7/4 to become the next US President per the latest betting odds at BoyleSports. That suggests that Joe Biden’s exit from the US Presidential election race has boosted the chances of a Democrat victory. If Harris were to win this US election it would make her a historical figure as the first female to hold the office of President of the United States.
The news of Biden’s withdrawal will have come as a surprise to many but not a total shock to many as he had faced calls to withdraw since his performance in the opening TV debate of the campaign last month. Pressure from within his own party finally told when he announced his departure from the White House race on Sunday.
Biden’s Withdrawal Bad News For Trump
Donald Trump had been a hot odds-on favourite at 1/3 before Biden’s statement appeared on social media platform X, but he has now been eased slightly in the betting to 1/2, with Harris’ chances backed down to 7/4 from 5/1.
Kamala Harris ‘Shoo’-in’ To Be Democratic Nominee
Odds of 1/12 suggest that Harris is now a shoo-in to replace Biden on the ticket as she has already received support from the outgoing President as well as Bill and Hillary Clinton. While a statement from the Obamas paid tribute to Biden’s Presidency, it stopped short of endorsing Harris as the Democratic candidate and at 8/1 Michelle Obama is rated the most likely alternative to Harris.
Lawrence Lyons, spokesperson for BoyleSports, said: “The odds on Kamala Harris winning the White House have been in freefall since Joe Biden flunked the TV debate and punters clearly reckon Donald Trump now has a stronger fight on his hands as the gap in the betting continues to shorten.”
