US President Barack Obama is favored by nearly 1-3 to win the state of Ohio with just days until the Presidential election.  Most polls show Obama up 3 points, well within the margin of error, however.  All odds courtesy of Sportsbook.com here

In Florida, where Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney were neck and neck just days ago at EVEN odds, Romney was at -240, with better than 1-2 odds.  Recent polls tend to show Obama about a point ahead in the Sunshine State.  Heavy wagering was coming into Sportsbook from Florida. 

Virginia remains EVEN between Obama and Romney.

Colorado polls show a dead heat between the two candidates, however, recent odds now have Obama a -130 favorite.

If gamblers are right, Nevada may no longer be in play as the President is now a -600 favorite to win that state.   

Wisconsin had Obama as better than a 1/3 favorite.

The President was a 1-2 favorite to win swing state New Hampshire as he was in Iowa.

Overall, Obama is nearly a 1-3 odds favorite to be re-elected.
