2016 US Presidential Election Betting Update PT 2

The fact remains that he race has tightened significantly over the past few weeks with many reputable national polls now putting Trump ahead and moving out of the margin of error. This has also translated into bookmakers lowering Trump's prices from the highs they hit during the media blitzkrieg and attempt to dislodge his campaign permanently. He had drifted up pretty significantly and was in the range of about 3/1 for the general – his highest price since he secure the Republican nomination after his blowout win in Indiana.

Bookmakers have recently clipped The Donald down to a price as low as 15/8 for the outright victory in November. Hillary has seen her odds on the drift for the past few days and is now hovering around a 2/5 margin – whereas she was priced around 1/3 by several bookmakers just a few days back in late August.

Other contenders in the mix for the outright victory in November – and these are some very facsinating odds when you actually think about who would really take one of these bets right now – include the likes of Bernie Sanders at 66/1 and Joe Biden as high as 100/1. You can back Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson, who the media has been trying desperately to inflate his poll numbers and get him onto the stage during one of the debates, is priced at anywhere between 66/1 and a 200/1 margin.

Republican Speaker Paul Ryan is still in the frame here and it certainly appeared as though he was jockeying for position for a presidential ran back in mid-summer when it looked like the Never Trump element of the GOP were a lot more formidable and organized than they really seemed to be at the time. Ryan has clashed publicly with Trump several times and there seems to be an uneasy truce about the two right now.

Punters will find Paul Ryan priced at anywhere from 33/1 all the way up to 200/1 for the US Presidency in November.

Mike Pence to wind up as President would reward at about a 200/1 margin while Tim Kaine sits at 250/1. Mitt Romney to somehow throw his hat into the ring and get involved would reward at 250/1 with most major bookmakers while Evan McMullin can be backed at a 500/1 margin.

Jill Stein of the Green Party is a ways off the pace here and enters the mix as a 500/1 longshot with her polling around 1%. Old names you haven't heard of in months like Ted Cruz and John Kasich can both be backed as high as 500/1 as well to be elected President of the United States in 2016.
