Defensa y Justicia first goal - 6/4

I haven't got involved in betting on the US election, but it's interesting to see the gap between the main data crunchers and the odds markets

538 and Nate Silver both make it close to a coin-toss.



Whereas on the betting side:

Betfair (£187m matched so far) make a Trump win a 61% likelhood (...he shortened 2-3% in the last hour and ~4% since dinner time yesterday)
Polymarket have him at 63%
Kalshi have him at 57%

Given the margins in the battleground states are pretty narrow (+/- 1%) a whole host of outcomes are very much still on the table - from a very tight finish to a comfortable win either way.

With that in mind Kamala Harris doesn't look a bad bet at 13/8. Maybe even a decent back to lay prospect as she'll trend towards evens if she holds her own in the first couple of swings states.

Aye, I backed her at 6/4 on Friday after listening to the SBC podcast Cloudy posted. The guest made a hell of a case for Harris to win.


So with that, and thinking I was getting 6/4 on a coin toss I backed her. I might have backed Trump had the odds been reversed tbh.
