HOW DOES THE US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION WORK?
The United States uses Electoral Colleges to determine the president and vice president. The candidate with 270 Electoral College votes takes the presidency. Each state is assigned a set of votes based on the number of representatives in the House of Representatives, with two more added for the senators each state has in Congress. The candidate with the most votes for a particular state will take all of the Electoral College votes (Nebraska and Maine dole out their Electoral votes based on the proportion of the popular vote each candidate gets) to reach that magic number of 270. But just because you win the presidency doesn’t mean you won the nation’s popular vote.
There have been five instances when the winner hasn’t had more votes by the people. While three of those instances happened during the 1800s (John Quincy Adams, Rutherford B. Hayes, and Benjamin Harrison), we’ve seen it happen in two of the last four presidential elections: George W. Bush in 2000 and Donald Trump in 2016 won against Al Gore and Hillary Clinton, respectively.
And before you ask, yes, global bookmakers offer bets on different party combinations for the Electoral College and popular vote.

US PRESIDENTIAL ODDS FAQ
CAN I BET ON THE US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION? WHERE?
At this time, it is illegal to bet on politics in the United States. So, short answer, no.
HOW DO I BET ON THE 2024 ELECTION?
Again, you can't in the US. Some offshore bookmakers offer lines, but we absolutely do not recommend that. There's much more risk involved, and you can't be certain you'll receive any winnings or be able to withdraw your money.
WHAT KIND OF ELECTION PROP BETS ARE THERE?
The most straightforward political prop bet for the US election is simply "Who will win the 2024 US presidential election?" You can also find prop bets on things like "first to have classified documents leaked"; "first woman to win Presidential seat", etc. It's a wild world out there for election bettors, but if you're in the US, you're prohibited from making prop bets on US politics.
