Underdog gamblers may be tempted to look at Trump's longshot odds and take them as the election is very close. Biden holds only a narrow lead in Michigan and the President is already protesting the potential results, which may lead to a recount which would be in Trump's favor.
They are finding Biden votes all over the place — in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan. So bad for our Country!

Pennsylvania in particular is an interesting betting line as Biden was heavily favored, despite the Keystone state voting Republican in the last election. Donald Trump famously flipped Pennsylvania by only 2% in 2016.
This makes sports bettors who took Biden to reclaim Pennsylvania not farfetched, as very few expected the election to go this way a second time.
