Us Presidential Election Odds
US presidential election odds work in the same way that the odds for sporting events work. This means that you need to use your political rather than your sporting knowledge to prepare and plan your bets, but the actual process of researching your wagers is pretty much the same. 2020 Election Odds Updates Dec. Sportsbooks have been holding onto all money bet on the 2020 presidential election — part because of Donald Trump’s attempts to overturn the election, but mostly because they could. Monday, some books began paying out Biden bettors after the electoral college voted to confirm his victory.
- State election odds can be found at internet sports betting platforms. A user only needs to find the political category tab and click on it. Once that’s been done, there will be a list of state election odds as well as other wagers that are related to the 2020 Presidential Election.

Senate Election Odds
According to the 2020 Presidential Election Betting Odds Tracker at OddsShark, Donald Trump was the favourite back in July 2019 – but now, “Biden is a -185 favourite to win the 2020 US.
Senate election odds are another sub-category of wagers listed within the political section of a sportsbook. There will be quite a few bets to choose from. Bookmakers come up with the odds by making calculations based on the way of the polls and how they show each party’s progress. Bettors can either choose the best bets using the sports betting site’s choices or if they follow the news themselves or just have a gut feeling, then they can always gamble on the Senate election odds in that way. There is no wrong way to gamble as it will always be called a gamble.
House Election Odds
Just like there are Senate odds, there will be House election odds listed for bets. There is no telling what House wagers will be found on a sportsbook as they all differ just like their odds for each bet. Finding these bets is easy and gambling on them is even easier. If you are a person that thinks politics is boring, put some money on these wagers and watch how much more exciting the subject becomes. Even prop bets can be useful to make some side cash.
Electoral College By State
Each state has a set amount of electors that are given a certain amount of votes. There are 538 votes nationwide for the Electoral College. Some states count more than others just like with regular election voting, because they have more people. One important concept to understand in US elections is the concept of swing states. Swing states are the states that can “swing” an election in a certain candidate’s favor if they win them over. They are the states each person in an election is hoping to have in their back pocket both by the public and with the Electoral College vote. This year, important swing states include Pennsylvania, Florida, Arizona, Nevada, Michigan and Wisconsin, with Georgia, Ohio and Texas in contention as well. If a candidate receives 270 Electoral College votes or more they have the majority vote to win the election.
