raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate<\/a> in Palm Beach, Fl.<\/p>\nSin City Election Scandal<\/b><\/h2>\n Trump was hoping to turn Nevada red after failing to win the perennial swing state in 2016.<\/p>\n
Nevada going for Democrat Hillary Clinton was the first time in 10 years that Nevada voters got a presidential election wrong. But Nevada got it right in 2020, as Biden went on to oust Trump from the White House.<\/p>\n
Political bettors had Biden favored ahead of Election Day. But as the first batches of votes were counted, Trump pulled ahead in several key states, including Nevada, which turned the betting odds strongly in the incumbent’s favor.<\/strong><\/p>\nHowever, when all the votes were tallied, Biden won Nevada with about 33,600 more votes than Trump. The Republican, however, won 15 of the 17 counties in Nevada. The two exceptions were Nevada’s two most populated counties — Clark and Washoe.<\/p>\n
\n
As the final votes continued to trickle in days after Election Day, largely in Biden’s favor, an unraveling Trump was reportedly in direct communication with Clark County election supervisors. On November 17, the Trump campaign asked a state judge to nullify Biden’s 33,596-vote margin and declare Trump the winner of the state and award him Nevada’s six electors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The Nevada Supreme Court, however, on November 24 certified Biden as the winner of Nevada. The scandal didn’t end there.<\/p>\n
As Nevada’s six electors gathered via zoom to cast their ballots for Biden, the Nevada Republican Party held a signing ceremony in Carson City where fake elector certificates were signed showing Trump winning Nevada. The falsified documents were submitted to Nevada Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske, Congress, and the US National Archives.<\/p>\n
Trump’s 2024 Odds<\/b><\/h2>\n The ongoing legal drama surrounding the former president, paired with a lackluster 2022 midterms performance by his party, has rendered Trump’s 2024 odds long.<\/p>\n
\n
PredictIt bettors have Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) as the betting front-runner to win the GOP’s nomination for the 2024 election. Trump’s odds suggest he has only a 29% chance of being on the Republican ticket in two years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Biden is currently the 2024 favorite, PredictIt bettors giving the 80-year-old a 33% chance of winning a second term in the Oval Office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
