2024 Election Odds: Bettors Backing Dwayne Johnson to Win
2024 Election Odds: Bettors Backing Dwayne Johnson to Win
Ever since jokingly announcing on SNL with Tom Hanks that he planed to run for President in 2020, Dwayne Johnson, AKA The Rock, has been one of the favorites to become the next celebrity candidate. It hasn’t come to fruition yet, but that hasn’t stopped bettors from backing him.
Over the last 24 hours, 23.8% of bets placed on the 2024 Presidential Election winner have been placed on Johnson, making him the bettors’ favorite. Meanwhile, Johnson has taken to Twitter to talk about the possibility, only adding more fuel to the fire.
Johnson is currently listed at +6100, or an implied 1.6% chance to win the presidency. That slots Johnson 14th on the odds market. While not the greatest odds, they are better than very well known political candidates like Elizabeth Warren (+6600), Tom Cotton (+10400), Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (+10400), Marco Rubio (+14200), and Mitt Romney (+10000).
America has shown they aren’t afraid to vote for someone without political experience. If you’re an inspiring voice who can get people to follow you, then you can get elected. Could Dwayne Johnson be the one to to do that in 2024? It’s possible, but not likely.
Kamala Harris, the current Vice President, is still the oddsmakers' favorite at +400, or an implied 20% chance of victory. Bettors have placed 19.1% of there bets on her over the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is still a major factor as 14.3% of bets over the same span have been placed on him. Oddsmakers give Trump +820 odds, or an implied 10.9% chance to regain the presidency.
Johnson is certainly picking up steam on the market, but there’s a reason oddsmakers have him as their 14th favorite right now.
