Oddsmakers’ early picks for 2028 presidential election show White House race already heating up

Donald Trump was sworn in just less than a week ago as the 47th President of the United States, and if Andy Ogles has things his way he might be the 48th, too.

That, however, is unlikely to happen.

Instead, with Trump now in his second term, it looks like 2028 will feature someone new running on the Republican ticket. It may also feature a new challenger on the Democratic ticket.

And believe it or not there are already betting odds out on who will win the next presidential election.

Bet365 has released odds via Covers and it currently has Vice President JD Vance as the favorite to win it all at +250. But there are some interesting names right behind him.

Democrats Gavin Newsom and Josh Shapiro are tied for second most likely to win the presidency at +1000 followed by Democrat Pete Buttigieg at +1400.

Democrats Michelle Obama and Gretchen Whitmer, and Republicans Vivek Ramaswamy and Donald Trump Jr. are all tied at +1600.

Three more Republicans — Ron DeSantis, Tucker Carlson, Tulsi Gabbard — and Kamala Harris close it out with +2000 odds.

Benzinga reported that Nikki Haley is also listed at +4000 and Hillary Clinton is listed at +5000.

The site also reported that BetMGM has listed odds, too.

It also has Vance as the favorite at +275 followed by Newsom (+650) and Shapiro and Michelle Obama each at +800.

BetMGM also has a few different names on the list with Ivanka Trump listed at +2000 odds and Alexandra Ocasio-Ortiz at +2500.
