Biden seen as 'strongest challenger in modern history’ as protests, coronavirus send Trump reeling via YahooFinance
The race for the White House has turned decisively in favor of former Vice President Joe Biden, predictive betting markets show, with a convergence of negative developments weighing on President Donald Trump, who until recently was seen as an overwhelming favorite.
“For the first time since betting markets opened, there is a candidate that is more likely to win the 2020 election than Donald Trump,” he added. The former vice president “has problems with younger and non-white voters,” but those demographics are not likely to break for Trump, Koltun said. “He’s done a much better job consolidating the anti-Trump vote than Clinton did four years ago.”
Meanwhile, key swing states, which before the pandemic were leaning solidly in favor of the president, are now swinging in the opposite direction. The latest controversy buffeting Trump’s campaign has seen the president threaten to move the Republican National Convention out of GOP-friendly North Carolina, in the midst of a political standoff with its Democratic governor.
