The US Election continues to rumble on with a handful of states yet to be declared in what feels like a never-ending showdown between Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
The former Vice-President appears to hold a narrow advantage as we head towards the eventual climax of this very, very, very, very protracted election, with votes currently still being counted in several regions favouring the Democratic representative.
US Election odds live: Latest in Donald Trump and Joe Biden race for the White House
However President Trump is not lying down without a fight, bizarrely declaring victory halfway through the process while also accusing his opponents of committing electoral fraud in what was a busy night for the 74-year-old.
For those punters impressively still maintaining (or feigning) interest in the election outcome, Paddy Power are taking bets on who will claim the all-important final states.
Biden surprisingly secured the battleground state of Arizona, meaning the national attention now turns to the “blue wall” of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.
The 77-year-old needs to win two of these three traditional Democrat strongholds to secure overall victory and is odds-on for the set, despite trailing in all three earlier today.
At the time of writing Wisconsin is the most likely to vote Biden at 1/18 with Michigan just behind at 1/10.

Overnight in the US, there was still more than 1.4million vote-by-mail ballots left to count in Pennsylvania and it could take days to account for all of them.

Biden is currently at 4/7 to come out favourably there, while Trump is 5/4 to win the state’s support.
Meanwhile, the closest remaining battle is taking place in Georgia where Trump’s early lead has been eroded away by results from Atlanta in support of his opponent.
The President is 11/10 to win there while Biden is currently 4/6.
In the overall betting market, Biden is currently the overwhelming favourite to be voted the next President of the United States while Trump is a 7/2 outsider to earn another four years.
