U.S. Presidential Election

Updated U.S. Presidential Election States Electoral College Odds
Arizona Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -150
- Republican Candidate +110
Joe Biden is still in the lead, but Trump has something up his sleeve. He’s scaring seniors, and in AZ there are a lot of them, into going against Biden. Joe’s lead is down to a single point in Arizona. That means the state is trending towards Trump.
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
Florida Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -110
- Republican Candidate -130
Florida has moved into Trump’s column. The big reason? Seniors and Latinos. We know it sounds crazy, but Trump has picked up a lot of Latino support. Florida seniors, like Arizona seniors, are worried about Biden’s left-leaning policies, including raising taxes.
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
Georgia Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate +130
- Republican Candidate -170
Here’s another that looks to be in Trump’s favor. The Donald went to Georgia and talked all about how Biden wants to push through a version of the Green New Deal. That doesn’t play in states like Georgia.
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
Iowa Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate +140
- Republican Candidate -180
Iowa still has a viable ethanol industry. The state also makes corn and puts it into corn syrup. The entire state appears to be anti-Green New Deal. So, Iowa will go to Trump as well.
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
Michigan Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -250
- Republican Candidate +170
Trump believes he’s got a shot in Michigan. Maybe, he does. The biggest problem? Although Joe Biden’s platform appears progressive, it won’t be once he wins. Neither Kamala Harris nor Joe Biden has ever instituted a true leftist idea, which means Joe won’t scare away Michigan voters. Not only that, but Joe is strong with the unions.
Electoral College Pick: Democratic Candidate
Minnesota Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -500
- Republican Candidate +300
Minnesota has become an extremely blue state. For Trump to win Minnesota, he must get down on his knees and pray. Unless something crazy happens in the next couple of weeks, Joe takes Minnesota.
Electoral College Pick: Democratic Candidate
Nevada Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -300
- Republican Candidate +200
Finally, we get a shot at an overlay. Biden had a path to win Nevada. Trump has shut that path off. The latest polls has Biden by 2. That was on October 13.Trump, more likely, is up by 2 at this point.
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
North Carolina Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -135
- Republican Candidate +105
Trump is up by a point. He figures to increase that lead the closer we get to Nov. 3.
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
Ohio Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -145
- Republican Candidate -190
Trump is ahead in Ohio, but Biden is down by just .2 of a percentage point based on the aggregate of all polls. Although the state will likely go to Trump, it makes sense to back the candidate at the better odds.
Electoral College Pick: Democratic Candidate
Pennsylvania Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -280
- Republican Candidate +185
Sleepy Joe is ahead by 3.8% points on the aggregate. No poll has Trump ahead although most polls for Pennsylvania show that things fall within the margin of error, meaning Trump could win. The Orange Man has the better odds. He gets the nod.
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
Texas Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate +250
- Republican Candidate -400
Since Biden mentioned taking away guns, every Texan not named Beto O’Rourke decided they’d vote for Trump. -400 is an overlay on the current Commander-in-Chief.
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
Wisconsin Electoral College
- Democratic Candidate -300
- Republican Candidate +200
Wisconsin is now a toss-up. Two polls taken on Oct. 19 show different results. One has Trump down by 2 points the other has Donny down by 8 points. Joe could win, but why pass on the overlay odds on Citizen Trump?
Electoral College Pick: Republican Candidate
