    Is trump the market favorite because only people with weird gambling addictions care about any of these betting odds, and those folks overlap the trump supporters circle in the venn diagram?

      This was my first thought too, so I was curious if there were any stats correlating gambling and political affiliation. From a brief look, I found sports betting seemed to not correlate to party affiliation. [Source]

      I’m not sure if you can extrapolate that election betting wouldn’t either.
