If you’re a person who bets, put your money down on Lester Holt fact checking Donald Trump more than Hilary Clinton during the debate. According to the odds-makers at SportsBettingDime.com, at 1/4 Trump is the prohibitive favorite to get fact checked the most. If that’s not enough of a sure thing, the odds-maker also offer 1/7 odds that Trump refers to Clinton’s health or stamina during the event and 1/3 odds that Clinton references Trump’s alleged ties to Russia.
The odd-makers are also laying even money (1/1) that Colin Kaepernick is mentioned during the debate but only 3/1 odds that anyone mentions Skittles. They also give Clinton (11/10) a slight edge in getting a bigger post-election bump in the Quinnipiac Poll. And with the myriad of scandals surrounding each candidate, the odd-makers are split on lines of attack for each candidate. Favorite targets for Clinton are expected to be Trump’s Tax Returns and Bankruptcies both at 2/1; while Clinton’s emails (2/1) and the Clinton Foundation (3/1) are expected to be Trump’s favorite targets.
