Thanks to the best USA sportsbooks, US Presidential election odds don’t always come down to picking between a douche and a turd. That’s not to say, though, that you can’t pick between The Donald and whoever is the democratic candidate. However, the best online sportsbooks do offer a varied assortment of political prop bets.
For example, whether the Orange Goblin will win or lose the Electoral College and/or the popular vote. (or whether someone else will or won’t). You may remember, if you didn’t repress the memory, that in 2016 Trump became the fifth person in American history to win the presidency while losing the popular vote.

These are not wagers that users of the best USA sportsbooks commonly encounter, so let’s brush up on the subject matter. The election of the president and the vice president of the United States is an indirect election. The people, that is the popular vote, do not directly cast ballots for the offices of president and VP. Instead, they vote for members of the Electoral College, who in turn cast direct votes for president and VP. The candidate who gets an absolute majority of electoral votes (at least 270 out of a total of 538) is elected to that office. If no candidate gets an absolute majority of the votes for president, the House of Representatives picks the winner. And that brings us to the HoP.
US HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES CONTROL
| Democrats | Republicans |
|---|---|
| -250 | +170 |
The United States House of Representatives is the lower house of the United States Congress. Unlike the prez and vice-prez, Representatives are elected directly by the people every two years. The Nancy Pelosi-led democrats won control of the House in the 2018 midterm elections. Before that, the GOP had held a House majority since January 2011.
Finally, the best USA sportsbooks feature politically-inclined props that are not necessarily related to the election. Such as this one:
NEXT JUSTICE TO LEAVE SUPREME COURT
| Candidate | Odds |
|---|---|
| RUTH BADER GINSBURG | -250 |
| CLARENCE THOMAS | +400 |
| STEPHEN BREYER | +700 |
| SONIA SOTOMAYOR | +1800 |
| SAMUEL ALITO | +2400 |
| BRETT KAVANAUGH | +5000 |
| ELENA KAGAN | +4000 |
| NEIL GORSUCH | +4000 |
| JOHN ROBERTS | +2000 |
