11 new names were added to the odds to get to 39 in total. Mathematically, this addition caused the odds for most candidates to drop (total needs to be 100%). For example, Donald Trump continues to lead but dropped from 30.0% to 26.5%. He would have been flat without the additions.
Trump has higher odds than the next four competitors combined: Mike Pence, Elizabeth Warren, Michelle Obama, and Cory Booker.
There were two new entries into the top 10. Andrew Cuomo, the governor of NY, moves from 9th to 7th place. Paul Ryan, the Speaker of the House, moves from 12th place to 10th place.
A few of the big names that got added this week were:
- Kamala Harris, who just got elected to the Senate out of CA in 16th place
- Kirsten Gillibrand, the Senator from NY in 17th place
- Mark Cuban, the billionaire businessman in 20th place
- Mitt Romney, who may be named Secretary of State, in 23rd place
