According to some of the world’s most relevant political experts, President Joe Biden lost the first debate against former President Donald Trump, and his prospects of winning the elections have plummeted greatly. The new topic among the Democrats is whether to switch Biden with a new candidate. Here are a few names with the biggest odds for his replacement. Check them out and see.
Before Betting on Joe Biden Presidential Candidate Replacement
It’s completely obvious that Biden isn’t capable of consistently running this campaign and that, in some specific situations, he can’t handle the debates as he used to. We’ve seen some of the Democratic-leaning media already calling for his replacement, but even so, the odds are still on his side. For him to remain in his current place is -200, while to see some other name on the Presidential ballot is +150.
As for the odds on who might be his replacement, several names are in the running. The top favorite is California’s Governor, Gavin Newsom, who is one of the most popular figures in the Democratic party. Not only does he run one of the biggest states in the country, but he is also appealing to the media.
Many also consider the current Vice President, Kamala Harris, an ideal replacement, which is why bookmakers consider her one of the possible contenders to step in instead of Biden. She would be the first black lady to run for the White House, which is a huge plus in the overall situation.
Candidate | Odds |
---|---|
Gavin Newsom | +425 |
Kamala Harris | +550 |
Michelle Obama | +900 |
Gretchen Whitmer | +1000 |
Hillary Clinton | +2800 |
Former President Obama’s wife, Michelle is also very high on the list, and her chances are solid as well. Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer is right behind, while another former First Lady and the 2016 candidate, Hillary Clinton, closes the list of the top possibilities for replacing the current Democratic candidate.
