KEY FACTSBettors on the crypto-based betting platform Polymarket and New Zealand-based PredictIt are predicting Harris has an 84% chance of becoming the Democratic nominee for president after she was endorsed by President Joe Biden—who dropped out of the race on Sunday—and other top Democrats. On Polymarket, Harris is now locked in an almost dead heat with Trump—44% and 45%, respectively—on who the market believes will win the popular vote in November, although bookmakers still give him a 64% chance (a 35-point lead) of winning the election.
