After nearly 2 years of campaigning, we’re nearing the home stretch of the U.S. 2020 Presidential election. Both President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden have accepted their nominations, and we have just over 2 months to go until election day. But did either candidate get a bump from their respective conventions? Bodog has the odds to let us know.

During last week’s Democratic National Convention (DNC), most media pundits celebrated just how professional the whole affair was, with celebrity hosts, a diverse selection of speakers and, as many center-left pundits hailed, a new mom for America in V.P. pick Kamala Harris. But for the more cynical observer, a convention has a problem when the most exciting thing about the entire thing was an appetizer.

Rhode Island was a big sensation at the virtual Democratic National Convention for its unconventional video plugging calamari — the state’s official appetizer. https://t.co/C8j5epDiZI #odd
