Terry McAuliffe Holds Significant Lead over Glenn Youngkin in Odds to be Virginia’s Next Governor

Terry McAuliffe is the odds-on favorite to win the 2021 Virginia Gubernatorial Election, according to betting aggregators US-Bookies (See Disclaimer Below). McAuliffe has 3/10 odds to win the election (76.9% implied probability), while Glenn Youngkin’s odds are 3/1 (25%).  

“While the polls are saying it’s a neck-and-neck race, the betting odds show McAuliffe as a much stronger favorite,” says a US-Bookies spokesperson. “Betting odds recently predicted the California recall more accurately than polls, as the odds more strongly predicted a Newsom win than polling data did.” 

According to a recent Monmouth University poll, McAuliffe holds a 48% to 43% lead over Youngkin. However, betting odds show that McAuliffe has a much stronger 76.9% to 25% lead. 

Odds to Win 2021 Virginia Gubernatorial Election:
Terry McAuliffe: 3/10
Glenn Youngkin: 3/1
