A leading online betting site, Bettingonline.com, has ranked the odds of various political figures being elected president in 2020. As expected, President Trump leads the way; his odds are 3-2. Among Republicans, the first three places are what you’d expect: Mike Pence’s odds are 16-1 and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan’s are 40-1.
But in fourth place, tied with U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and Utah Senator Orrin Hatch at 50-1, is Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro. That places him well above 2016 presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, whose odds are 66-1, where she joins Ohio Governor John Kasich.
Other notable Republicans are Senator Rand Paul at 100-1, and Senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio at 125-1.
On the Democrat side, California Senator Kamala Harris has odds of 10-1; Senator Bernie Sanders’ odds are 14-1, and former Vice-President Joe Biden has odds of 16-1.
