Here’s list since summary bot completely missed the list:
(Please excuse my formatting, I’m on a phone and copying over from that article was a PITA.)
Elise Stefanik
The New York congresswoman has, along with Noem, long been touted as a strong female choice for Trump’s running mate because of her fierce loyalty to the former president, with Trump also frequently praising her.
Oddschecker currently has her +700 (7/1) to be Trump’s next running mate but suggested that she actually has “better odds of becoming vice president over Ramaswamy, despite what oddsmakers are currently predicting.”
Vivek Ramaswamy
According to Oddschecker, Ramaswamy’s chances of becoming Trump’s next running mate surged after the Iowa caucuses, rising from +740 (37/5), or an 11.9 percent probability to +650 (13/2), and now has a 13.3 percent implied probability.
Kristi Noem
The South Dakota governor has long been considered one of the top candidates to be Trump’s pick.
According to the latest odds, Noem has a +375 (15/4) chance of becoming Trump’s next running, with an implied probability of 21 percent.
This math is some kind of war crime. 375, 15/4, and 21% are radically different numbers, and only the third one represents a probability or “chance”.
15/4 appears to actually mean her odds are 15 to 4 to lose, as her odds of winning, about 21%, matches up with 4/19, i.e. 4 to 15 odds of winning.
And I have no idea what the hell 375 is supposed to mean.
Ben Carson
Carson, whom Trump nominated as secretary of housing and urban development in 2017, comes in as fourth in Oddschecker’s list.
However, the suggestions appeared to be more wild speculation, rather than any real indication from Trump.
Oddschecker is offering odds of +800 (8/1) on Carson being named Trump’s next running mate.
Ben Carson makes the list? Really? No one has mentioned his name in millenia.
I think Elise or Vivek are like. Nikki Haley probably more so than Ben Carson
This is the best summary I could come up with:
After Donald Trump cemented his place as the front-runner in the GOP primary with his clear win in the Iowa caucus, questions soon turned to whom the former president may pick as his 2024 running mate.
Trump has given no real indication, beyond offering small heaps of praise to certain people and ruling out any chance he would pick Mike Pence again after the pair’s relationship fell apart in the wake of the January 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.
In the wake of the Iowa caucuses, betting website Oddschecker listed what they believe are the most likely names in the running to be Trump’s choice of VP in 2024.
Following Monday’s Iowa caucuses, where Trump won with more than 50 percent of the vote, businessman Vivek Ramaswamy dropped out of the race and immediately endorsed the former president.
Ramaswamy has long faced speculation that his White House bid was more him vying to be Trump’s potential vice president in 2024, rather than a serious run for office.
As well as a potential female running mate, there has also been talk of Trump picking a person of color to broaden his appeal in 2024, with Carson’s name being touted late last year.
