Bettors are focused on Donald Trump despite Hillary Clinton being the favourite to become the 45th President.

The Trump market appears more volatile as Matchbook bettors have now placed more than £1million against the businessman winning the race.

Hillary Clinton stands out among UK bettors as the favourite to win the race to The White House.

At odds of around 7/10, the market gives Clinton a 56% chance of securing the Democratic Party candidacy and be inaugurated as the 45th US President. Although polls among Republican voters suggest that Donald Trump will be her rival representing the Grand Old Party come November 2016, the market suggests otherwise where Trump only has a 24% to win the GOP nomination.
