There's been a major market move ahead of Wednesday’s Republican debate.
In the wake of a WAPO/ABC poll that puts Donald Trump 10% up on Joe Biden, the former president's odds are crashing, and he’s now clear favorite.
In addition to President Biden slipping, Ron DeSantis is not being supported by bettors. As doubts grow over Biden being the nominee, odds for Gavin Newsom and Kamala Harris are both shortening.
Oddsmakers have also created wagering opportunities specifically for the GOP debate, which takes place in Simi Valley, California, Wednesday evening at 9 p.m. ET.
Betting options include most speaking time, total non-facts uttered, Biden criticism and more. You can find the full list below.
