we're going to take a look at the betting odds in all 50 states and see who will win the race to the White House but before we dive into the state-by-state breakdown let's look at the overall picture as it stands today betting markets give kamla Harris a 49% chance of winning the election compared to Donald Trump's 49% it's a close race but if the election were held today betters believe Harris would come out on top interestingly this represents a significant shift in the odds when President Biden first announced he was dropping out of the race Trump held a commanding lead with 63% to Harris's 29% the race has clearly swung in Harris's favor since then but is now back to 50/50 it's still anyone's game now let's break it down state byst state focusing on the key Battlegrounds that could decide this election in Minnesota we see Harris leading with a commanding 94% to Trump's 6% moving to Wisconsin Harris May maintains a lead with 59% to Trump's 41% in Michigan Harris is ahead with 65% to Trump's 35% Pennsylvania shows Harris leading 57% to 43% New Hampshire favors Harris significantly with 84% to Trump's 16% Virginia is strongly leaning towards Harris 88% to 12% shifting to North Carolina we see Trump leading with 62% to Harris's 38% Georgia shows Trump ahead 55% to 45% Arizona presents a tight race with Trump narrowly leading 51% to 49% and finally Nevada shows Trump in the lead 51% to 49% now let's use the data from betting markets and input it into our Electoral College map let's start off with all the states former president Trump will win Florida South Carolina Tennessee Alabama Mississippi Louisiana Iana Arkansas Missouri Kentucky West Virginia Iowa Indiana Ohio Oklahoma Texas Kansas Nebraska North and South Dakota Montana Wyoming Idaho Utah Alaska and finally Maine's second district now let's map the states kamla Harris will win without contest Washington Oregon California Hawaii New Mexico Colorado Illinois New York New Jersey Del Delware Maryland Washington DC Vermont Connecticut Rhode Island Maine's first district and finally Massachusetts moving on to our Battleground States let's start with Minnesota with Harris's overwhelming 94% lead in the betting markets will color Minnesota blue for Harris Wisconsin despite being a swing state is leaning towards Harris with 59% in the betting odds we'll cautiously add Wisconsin to Harris's column Michigan with Harris leading 65% to 35% also goes to Harris on our map Pennsylvania another crucial swing state shows Harris ahead 57% to 43% given its importance and recent voting history will color Pennsylvania blue for Harris New Hampshire with Harris at 84% in the betting markets is a clear win for her we'll add it to Harris's electoral votes Virginia showing strong support for Harris at 88% is comfortably in her column North Carolina despite its swing state status is leaning towards Trump with 62% in the betting markets will color North Carolina red for Trump Georgia with Trump leading 55% to 45% also goes to Trump on our electoral map Arizona presents the closest race of our Battlegrounds with Trump barely ahead at 51% given the narrow margin and Arizona's recent flip to democratic in 2020 will will cautiously put Arizona in Trump's column but note that it could easily swing either way finally Nevada with Harris leading 52% to 48% presents another close race given Nevada's recent Democratic leanings and Harris's slight Edge in the betting markets will add Nevada to Harris's electoral votes let's now add in these congressional districts in Nebraska and Maine now that we've looked at the betting odds for key Battleground States let's take a moment to compare compare these to recent polling data and consider some important factors interestingly while polls generally give Harris a slight Edge in Battleground States we've seen that betting markets are showing a much stronger Advantage for her in many of these crucial areas this discrepancy raises some intriguing questions about the difference between public opinion and where people are willing to put their money it's worth noting that Trump has frequently been underestimated in polls in past elections in 2016 and 20 20 many polls failed to accurately capture Trump's level of support leading to surprising results on Election night this history suggests we should be cautious about relying too heavily on polling data alone another crucial point to keep in mind is that the political landscape is far from static major events like the upcoming Democratic National Convention and the presidential debates have the potential to significantly shift public opinion and consequently both polling and betting odds these high-profile events often lead to fluctuations in support as voters tune in and reassess their choices while our Focus has been on the main contenders Harris and Trump the impact of third party candidates shouldn't be underestimated especially in states where margins are razor thin let's look at a few states where third party votes could potentially swing the result first let's consider Georgia in 2020 Biden won Georgia by just 0.23% of the vote a margin of about about 11800 votes out of nearly 5 million cast with the state this close even a small showing by a third party candidate could be decisive if a Libertarian or Green Party candidate manages to capture even 1% of the vote it could easily tip the scales in such a tight race Arizona presents a similar scenario in 2020 Biden's margin of victory was a mere 0.31% or about 10,500 votes as we saw earlier our betting odds show Trump with a slight 51 to 49 lead here a third party candidate polling at even 2 to 3% could dramatically alter the outcome potentially pulling enough votes from one side to hand Victory to the other Wisconsin is another state where third-party candidates could play a crucial role Biden's 20 to20 Victory margin was just 63% or about 20,600 votes our current betting odds favor Harris at 59% but if a third party candidate resonates with voters in this swing state it could upset these predictions it's important to note that the impact of third party candidates isn't always predictable historically they've been seen as taking votes primarily from Democrats but this isn't always the case depending on the candidate and their platform they might appeal to disillusioned voters from either major party as we move forward in this election cycle keep an eye on how third party candidates are polling in these Battleground States their presence on the ballot could add an extra layer of unpredictability to an already closely contested election while the odds of these candidates actually winning the election are near 1% their impact on the two main candidates could be significant in a race this close differences of 10 or 15,000 votes could decide at all and drastically change the electoral map we'll continue to monitor the latest polling and betting odds to see how these candidates could impact the election thanks for watching and consider subscribing if you enjoyed the video
