The 2024 United States presidential election is just 13 days away. And with Vice President Kamala Harris set to make her case to the American people on Wednesday night in a nationally televised town hall, former President Donald Trump remains a resounding favorite to re-claim the White House — with his lead growing larger nearly every day.
In fact, given the latest presidential election odds, our current projection is for Trump to win over 300 electoral votes, with the real possibility of a Republican landslide. Nearly every swing state, including crucial battlegrounds like Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, is increasingly in Trump's favor, while Florida and Arizona are so firmly in his grasp that one can hardly call them "swing states" anymore.
With all of the momentum behind Trump, Harris will participate in a presidential town hall hosted by CNN at 9 p.m. ET tonight. The town hall is in place of a proposed debate between Harris and Trump, which the former president declined. Vice President Harris will take questions from the audience during the town hall, and I'll be here during and after to give you the latest on the election odds.
For now, let's get to my updated presidential election predictions and everything you need to know about election betting odds, from the odds on Trump or Harris to win the election to state-by-state analysis for all 50 states and even the odds on which party will win the popular vote.
Presidential Election Odds
| Presidential Candidate | Election Odds | Chance to Win |

| Donald Trump | -182 | 60.77% |
| Kamala Harris | +140 | 39.23% |

Donald Trump Odds
Former President Donald Trump is currently a -182 favorite to win the presidential election, which gives him a 60.77% chance of victory. This is the best Trump's odds have been since the days after Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 election.
Kamala Harris Odds
Vice President Kamala Harris is a +140 underdog to win the presidential election, giving her a 39.23% chance of victory. The last time her odds were this long was after former President Barack Obama endorsed Harris as the Democratic nominee.
Presidential Election Predictions
Based on the current odds, our current election prediction is for Donald Trump to win 312 electoral votes and reclaim the White House. That would surpass Joe Biden's 306 electoral votes won in 2020, as well as topping Trump's own 304 electoral votes in 2016. If Trump were to win 312 electoral votes, it would be the most votes won by a Republican since George H.W. Bush's whopping 426 votes in 1988, coming off the back of Ronald Reagan's record 525 electoral votes in 1984.
Trump also has a combined 15.16% chance of winning in a landslide of more than 329 votes, with an 11.79% chance of winning between 330 and 359 electoral votes and a 3.37% chance of winning 360+.
Overall, the electoral vote-based election predictions give Trump a 62.67% chance of victory, slightly better than his 60.77% chance based on his -182 odds.
Here are the electoral vote projections for both candidates:

Which Party Will Win the Presidential Election
| Party | Odds | Chance to Win |
|---|---|---|
| Republicans | -182 | 60.21% |
| Democrats | +140 | 38.87% |
| Independent/Any Other Party | +10000 | 0.92% |
If we zoom out from the candidates and just look at the Democratic and Republican parties, the odds on who will win the White House in November effectively remain the same. The Republicans are -182, just like Donald Trump, while the Democrats are +140, just like Kamala Harris.
The only difference between these odds and the straight-up Trump vs. Harris odds is the inclusion of the chance of an Independent or third-party candidate winning the election at 100-to-1 odds.
Odds for Winning Party of 2024 Popular Vote
| Party | Odds | Chance to Win |
|---|---|---|
| Democrats | -300 | 68.60% |
| Republicans | +200 | 30.49% |
| Independent/Any Other Party | +10000 | 0.91% |
The Democrats are still heavy favorites to win the popular vote, but their -300 odds are much lower than the -700 odds Harris & Co. enjoyed shortly before the 2024 Democratic National Convention.
Days Until Presidential Election, Key Dates and Events to Watch
There are 13 days until the 2024 United States Presidential Election on Nov. 5. Many states are already allowing early voting and voting by mail.
Counting ballots will take weeks in some states, and the results must be certified by Congress, a process that can be contentious. The new president will be sworn into office on the steps of the Capitol building in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 20, marking the culmination of this intense electoral process.
Keep in mind the winner of the United States presidential election is decided by which candidate gets the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the Electoral College, not who wins the national popular vote. Those electoral votes are allocated on a state-by-state basis, based on the number of members of the House of Representatives, plus the two members of the Senate in each state, with Washington, D.C., also having three electors, for a total of 538 electoral college votes.
That means that 270 electoral votes is the minimum number needed to win the majority of the votes.
