The Democratic nominee is now a -212 favorite at Pinny. If you like the Republican, you get +194. These odds will change, but that is the current snapshot in time of where the money is going. Each candidate will get a bounce occasionally, depending on world news, economic news, primary votes, conventions, etc. If you bet based on your own beliefs or like a fan, this is one market you should probably not get involved with.

Do we have any idea of the odds in past elections to give it some perspective. I think the one to look at in particular is 1992 when Bush I was running as an incumbant and subsequently lost.

Wasn't Bush still polling high?

Not sure about that, but I want one of your paczkis. That's a big favorite today too.

I think Bennison's serves up a good one. I bought mine from Schlegel's but that is a little farther from you.
