BetOnline does not believe Nikki Haley will win the South Carolina Primary. Former US President Donald Trump maintains a significant lead in current polls there. Haley served as Governor of The Palmetto State.
Haley has long represented the state of South Carolina, first as a state representative from 2005 to 2011 and as governor from 2011 to 2017. She was the first woman to be governor of South Carolina and the second Indian American governor in the United States.
The likelihood of Trump winning is such a "lock" that BetOnline is only offering odds on his Margin of Victory in the state.
30 to 34 percent, 35 to 39 percent and 50 percent are co-favorites paying out $400 for every $100 bet.
40 to 49 percent pays out $450.
A close race with a Margin of Victory within 10 percent pays as much as $6000 on a $100 bet.
Though BetOnline does not offer odds on Haley winning per se, they do have odds on Trump losing at 33-1.
Haley's campaign has aggressively gone after Trump in the state with a massive ad buy. The latest focuses on "more chaos".
“The chaos that surrounds him is bad enough,” the narrator in the video says.
“A 10 percent across-the-board tax increase. More record-breaking debt. A Russian victory that will bring more war. With a world on fire and a crisis at home, with Trump it’s just more chaos,” the narrator continues.
Speaking to Hugh Hewitt Tuesday morning, Haley doubled down: “An unhinged president is an unsafe president,” she said.
Haley also suggested current President Joe Biden should step down after a special counsel report determined last week he mishandled classified documents while raising questions about the president’s memory and mental acuity.
In response, BetOnline offered odds on whether Biden could pass a dementia test.
