Odds For Bernie Sanders To Win The 2024 Presidential Election

Out of the potential field of candidates running for the 2024 Presidency, Bernie Sanders holds competitive odds for challenging Biden. Out of all the candidates, Democratic and Republican, Sanders usually ranks among the best chances to win in 2024.

Sanders has experience running for President in 2016, and again in 2020, and his name-recognizability from said campaigns gives him an edge. Even though Bernie has yet to attain the Oval Office, many Dems are touting his running policies that date back to 2016, suggesting that his influence taking hold on the left.

At the moment, Bernie Sanders’ odds to become the next President of the United States is set at a moneyline of +10000, suggesting that he has nearly zero chance of winning in 2024.

Odds Of Bernie Sanders Winning The Democratic Nomination

The odds for Bernie Sanders to win the Democratic nomination are not as promising as his last two go-rounds. With Sanders’ 2016 and 2020 Presidential campaign experience, he is more than likely to have a real chance at obtaining the party’s nomination than some random politico, but he has no real shot of unseating the likes of Biden or VP Kamala Harris.

His odds to attain the DNC’s 2024 nomination reflect the above pessimistic outlook, listing him with +5000 moneyline odds to win. Unless a groundswell of new support back’s a Bernie run, or he flips and joins the race as an independent, Sanders doesn’t stand much of a chance to make it to the general election cycle.

Can I Bet On Bernie Sanders Now?

Yes, you can, although it seems like a bad bet at this point. While currently irrelevant in the polls to the likes of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and even Representative AOC, bets can be made on Bernie Sanders’ political future and whether or not he can win the PResidency in 2024.

If you think Bernie is going to get the Democrat nod this time around, now would be a very good time to put down some cash on the Vermont Senator as his odds are long. As the field narrows going into primary season, Sanders figures to be favored even more highly if he sticks sround, with payouts shrinking for those who wait to place their wagers.

What The Current Odds Tell Us About Sanders’s Chance Of Winning In 2024

The current Presidential odds imply that Bernie Sanders is considered a massive underdog not only to the incumbent Joe Biden, but also to Donald Trump, Governor Ron DeSantis, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and a host of other political hopefuls from both sides of the aisle. Until Bernie gets serious and throws his hat in the ring for the 2024 Presidency, his odds will remain low.
