General Election Betting Tips 

Since the General Election was called a couple of months ago, all polls have pointed to the Conservatives winning with a majority. Anyway, in the last few days some polls have the lead over Labour slipping to single digits, with Jeremy Corbyn’s party slowly closing the gap as the General Election Day approaches.

With the Tories backing their exit deal, the Lib Dems campaigning to revoke Article 50 and Labour undecided on which side of the fence to fall it’s not your standard election.

General Election 2019: The Opinion Polls   

ComRes put them a massive 18 points ahead, while at the opposite end of the scale Savanta show Labour reducing the deficit to six - just within the range which would give us a hung parliament. According to the latest Electoral Calculus prediction, the Tories are expected to win 339 seats, giving a majority of 28 seats. While up from a recent low of a 12 seat majority, this was down from 34 seats from earlier in the week. The poll of polls, compiled by the Press Association, puts the Tories on 43 per cent, Labour on 33 and the Lib Dems lagging behind on 13.

Overall Majority: Hung Parliament?      

Online bookmakers still expect the Conservatives to gain a majority. Boris Johnson's party are a solid 1/3 to be able to form a majority government, with another hung parliament on offer at 3/1.

There is a mountain to climb for Labour, as the Conservatives appear to have around 50% of the Remain vote and 70% of the Leave vote, following the Brexit Party's decision not to stand candidates in constituencies where there's a sitting Tory MP.

Anyway, according to polls, a hung parliament is a value bet.

Brexit Party & Lib Dems       

The Brexit Party are odds-on to win no seats at the general election - although Nigel Farage's party came first in May's European elections in the UK - after they were hit by resignations from MEPs who are now urging people to vote Conservative. Three Brexit Party MEPs have resigned the party whip in order to support Boris Johnson's deal with the EU while Farage, who's not standing at the general election, is touring the UK to campaign against Johnson's Brexit deal in the general election.

The Liberal Demeocrats currently have 21 seats in Parliament. They were also expected to play a big part in the outcome of the election, but have failed to impress the punters during their campaign.

Political Betting  

Political betting is booming and the interest shown by punters at the most granular levels means bookmakers and betting platforms need to stay on their toes.

Forecasting elections is a precarious business. In recent years, professional pollsters have got most elections wrong most of the time. They failed to call the result of the Brexit referendum, David Cameron’s victory in 2015, and the hung parliament of 2017. Plus, nobody expected Donald Trump to beat Hillary Clinton in the US Presidential Election.
