Bettors Still Backing Trump Bigly for 2024 Win
The top bet counts for the 2024 US Presidential Election heavily favor the former President, Donald J. Trump, according to that company's head oddsman Dave Mason.
While Trump's son is listed as a long shot to win paying $3300 on a $100 bet, more bets are coming in on the father-son duo than the current US President Joe Biden and the next four largest bet counts combined.

The 45th US President continues to lay low in Mar-a-Lago, his sprawling West Palm Beach golf club.
Biden's current popularity makes him a pretty good bet for 2024, though there are questions as to whether he would want to serve a second term. His payout is $375 for every $100 bet.
Biden's approval rating was coming in at 53.4% approve and 40% disapprove, according to FiveThirtyEight.com. The mostly smooth rollout of the Covid-19 vaccine is cited as having allowed Biden to maintain a steady approval rate between 52.5% and 55%.
