The fifth\nDemocratic Debate took place in Atlanta last week, and that has led\nto a change in the odds\nto win the Democratic Party nomination for the 2020 US Presidential\nElection<\/a>. Elizabeth Warren is no longer the favorite,\nfalling back into a tie with establishment frontrunner Joe Biden, and\nBernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg continue to make in-roads. As of\nnow, it\u2019s a four-person race although Michael Bloomberg has odds of\n+800 to win the Democratic nomination, but a lot can change between\nnow and when the Iowa Caucuses take place on February 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHO WILL WIN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY\u2019S NOMINATION FOR THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

ELIZABETH WARREN +350
JOE BIDEN +350
PETE BUTTIGIEG +500
BERNIE SANDERS +550
MICHAEL BLOOMBERG +800
ANDREW YANG +1200
HILLARY CLINTON +1400
KAMALA HARRIS +3300
TULSI GABBARD +3300
AMY KLOBUCHAR +4000
CORY BOOKER +4000
TOM STEYER +5000<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elizabeth Warren is the co-favorite to win the Democratic Party\u2019s nomination, but she is not currently set to win any of the early primaries. That\u2019s a bit of a concern, but she has raised the second-most money and has the third-most endorsements according to FiveThirtyEight<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warren has a lot\ngoing for her too. Her policies are largely progressive, but she is\nmore centrist than Bernie Sanders. That means she can pull votes from\nboth the center and the progressive blocs of the Democratic Party,\nand she is polling relatively well nationally. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is some\nmoderate value in Warren at this price. She was 22-1 per the\npolitical\nbetting odds<\/a> earlier in the year, but she has proven\nshe has staying power whereas former contenders like Kamala Harris\nhave faded. Warren has an extensive ground game with deep roots, so\ndon\u2019t be surprised if she performs better than expected in places\nlike South Carolina. She also stands to be the primary beneficiary of\nBernie Sanders\u2019 supporters if he bows out of the race, and that\nwould make her bid even stronger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joe Biden remains\nthe leader in the national polls, but his vote share has decreased\ndramatically since the summer. Biden largely benefited from name\nrecognition and association with a popular president, and others are\ncatching him as they raise their own profiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former Vice\nPresident is prone to gaffes too. He seemed to be fading at the end\nof the last debate and made multiple errors that have been seized\nupon by his rivals. That has tarnished his star, and his reputation\nis being drug through the mud by other candidates and the media.\nBiden is not the horse you want to bet on in this race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pete Buttigieg\nmight be worth some money though. Buttigieg has emerged as the\nbiggest centrist challenger to Biden, and he is currently ahead in\nIowa. Other candidates treated him as the frontrunner on the stage\nlast week, and he was constantly put on the defensive by a few of the\nlongshots and the moderators. The mayor from South Bend handled\nhimself well though, raising his star in the process, and his\nodds<\/a> are likely to drop in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recent polls\nindicate that Buttigieg has received a bit of a bump after his debate\nperformance. Buttigieg was polling in the single digits nationally,\nbut he is the second most popular candidate nationally next to Biden\nin the latest poll from Quinnipiac University, grabbing 16 percent of\nthe vote. His fundraising has been spectacular for a candidate\nwithout much of a national profile, and he has aligned himself with\nmany of the corporate donors that support centrists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bernie Sanders\u2019\nbase is rock solid, and he has received money from more donors than\nany other candidate. He has the support of The Squad and others love\nthe old senator from Vermont. Sanders has been the most progressive\nDemocrat for quite some time, and his no-nonsense attitude is\nrespected even by his critics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He performed very\nwell in the polls in 2016, losing a close race to Hillary Clinton\ndespite having only a fraction of her considerable resources.\nUnfortunately, he is 78, and health concerns have dogged him since he\nhad a heart attack a few months ago. Any additional health issues\ncould submarine his campaign, and he will have a tough time pushing\nthrough a crowded field too, so don\u2019t bet on Bernie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michael Bloomberg is another candidate to avoid. Bloomberg hasn\u2019t even made his candidacy official, but he has odds of less than 10-1<\/a> because of his considerable fortune. This is not a race a billionaire will win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
