Race Odds Updates: NJ Governor and Romanian President

For the second straight week, we have another international election with massive significance.

The run-off for the Romanian Presidential Election is set for this Sunday. The divisions mirror United States and European politics and the result could have major implications for the EU and NATO.

A supporter of Donald Trump, George Simeon leads the run-off polls against the liberal Mayor of Bucharest, Nicusor Dan, but the margin has closed to just 4% in recent days.  BetOnline has the latest odds here and below.

George Simeon             -210

Nicusor Dan                  +170

In another political update, the most competitive gubernatorial race in 2025 will be New Jersey, where we have a significant market move to report on the Democratic Primary.

The Mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka, was arrested last Friday after joining a protest at an ICE detention facility. His profile has consequently soared and we now have him as second favorite to win the primary.
