Nowadays, almost every sports betting provider’s program includes political betting. When it comes to the outcome of elections for which you are entitled to vote, you can even have a small influence on the result yourself with your vote.
Who will be the next Chancellor? Who will win the presidential election in the USA? How many votes will the CDU receive in the Bundestag elections? Which politician will become the new Minister President of Bavaria? On all these things you can bet at 22Bet and try your luck.
THE MOST POPULAR POLITICAL BETS
The best providers in Germany offer you politics bets on the outcome of the federal and state elections. Here you can predict which party will receive the most votes. It is also possible to predict the next coalition. You also have the option of guessing the exact percentage of votes for the individual parties.
NEXT FEDERAL CHANCELLOR
Angela Merkel has prevailed against her SPD opponents in each of the last four federal elections. However, there will not be a fifth term in office, as the Chancellor has already ruled out running for office again. If there are no early elections, the next general election will take place in 2021.
Before the individual parties have not yet decided on their top candidates, you will find a large selection of potential politicians on the providers’ websites. With the right instinct, you can find one or two lucrative betting odds here. The odds are changed relatively frequently due to political developments and polls.
WINNER OF THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN THE USA
Although the forecasts for the 2016 election in the United States saw Hillary Clinton clearly ahead, Donald Trump triumphed in the end. He became the 45th President of the USA to enter the White House. This was accompanied by many protests, but caused some betting enthusiasts to jump for joy. They had secured the underdog odds on Trump’s victory and were delighted with the high payouts.
Elections in America take place every four years. You can already place your bets on the various primaries. Immediately after the election, new odds on the possible Republican and Democratic candidates for the next decision can be found in the providers’ program.
WINNER OF THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN FRANCE
While in Germany the parliament elects the chancellor, in France the president is chosen directly by the people. If none of the candidates receives an absolute majority of votes in the first round, a run-off election is held. In this run-off, the two candidates who received the most votes in the first round face each other.
In the last election in 2017, Emmanuel Macron won the run-off against Marine Le Pen with 66.1% of the vote. Many experts expect another duel between these two politicians in the next presidential election in France.
NEXT PRIME MINISTER IN THE UK
The United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union on January 31, 2020 has long dominated political betting, especially among British bookmakers. The so-called Brexit bets enjoyed great popularity. After leaving the EU, the focus is now once again on predictions about the next occupant of Number 10 Downing Street, the seat of the Prime Minister.
Following Theresa May’s resignation, Boris Johnson became the new Prime Minister in 2019. In the 2019 UK general election, Johnson’s Tories received over 43% of the vote. You will have to be patient until the next election. This is not expected to take place until 2024.
