Betting on politics is something that many players enjoy. At Betsson you can therefore already bet on the US presidential election in 2028, even though there is still a long time to go. At the moment, you can mainly bet on who will be the next president and which party will win the election, but at Betsson you can also bet on certain events to happen during the next four years of Donald Trump’s presidency.
When is the next presidential election?
The next US presidential election will be held on 7 November 2028.
Bet on much more than who will be president
As the election approaches, you can count on a huge range of betting markets that go beyond just who will be president or which party will win the election.
Who will win a particular state, who will get the most votes overall, who will get 300 or more votes or what date the winner will be announced are just some of the different betting opportunities we usually offer at Betsson. Some of our most popular betting opportunities include:
Who will win a state's votes?
Extra exciting betting on the presidential election. The different states support different presidential candidates. With us, you can bet on who will win each individual state. A really entertaining betting opportunity at Betsson.
Who can reach 300 electoral votes?
Here you can choose to bet on whether a candidate will get more than 300 electoral votes. But will any of the candidates manage to pull away that much?
A candidate does NOT get the most votes but still wins
Thanks to the electoral system, a candidate can get fewer votes than their opponent, but still win the election. Will this happen in 2028?
Who will win the House, the Senate and the Presidency?
You can also bet that one of the two parties will win a majority in each body and will also be able to appoint a president. Will it be the Democrats or the Republicans?
Popular vote
Who will get the most votes from the people? These are very interesting odds and a lot can happen on election day.
The electoral system - a brief explanation
Unlike most European countries, where the party with the most votes gets the chance to form a government, the US has an electoral system. Each state has a presidential election where the people get to cast their votes. These votes then determine the distribution of the 538 votes of the electoral system. These electors then vote for a President and a Vice President.
Follow the presidential election

If you want to bet on the presidential election odds, it's a good idea to keep an eye on the news as it fluctuates greatly during the term of office.
Something that affects the odds on the 2028 presidential election along the way is, among other things, various surveys that measure support for the two candidates or parties. These are called ‘polls’. Does the incumbent have a tailwind or is the challenger going strongest at the moment?
These can change a lot over time and a lot depends on events, coincidences, but also on how the candidates have expressed themselves or handled situations.
