betting odds appear to have stabilized when it comes to the winner.
Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party have given back the gains they
made in recent weeks, falling back from –450 to –325, while Donald Trump

Trump is still projected to receive about 44% of the popular vote on
November 8, but his party has picked up steam in some key “swing”
states. The GOP have climbed from +200 to +170 in both Iowa and North
Carolina over the past two weeks, while Utah has vaulted from –300 to
–700 to vote Republican. Meanwhile, Trump remains a +200 underdog to
take Florida and Nevada, and the Republicans have slipped from +200 to
+250 in Ohio. Clinton and the Dems are favored in 17 of the 22 states
available on the futures market.
This has been a relatively quiet period for both parties, especially the
Democrats, but business should pick up again on September 26 with the
first of five scheduled debates – four between Clinton and Trump, and
another between vice-presidential candidates Tim Kaine and Mike Pence.
