Horse Race PoliticsAuthor: Swansea University
The 2020 US Presidential Campaign. In this weekly series, three academics from Swansea University (Drs. Matt Wall; Allaina Kilby and Richard Thomas) use political gambling odds and media analysis to make sense of the race to the White House. Looking at the campaign through this lens, they seek to identify the key trends, events, and stories that are 'moving the needle'. By listening to this podcast, you can get a better sense of how Donald Trump and Joe Biden are faring during the run-in to the election - with our focus being on analysis, not ideology.

8. Campaign Reverberations and Biden's First 100 Days
Episode 8
Thursday, 29 April, 2021
In this bonus episode, recorded live for CHERISH-Digital Economy Centre's Festival of Ideas at Swansea University, we take stock of US Politics on the week where Joe Biden will complete his first 100 days in office – reflecting on the reverberations of the contestation of the result of the 2020 election, analysing the performance and media coverage of the Biden regime, and looking forward (with a little help from the gambling markets) to assess the trajectory of the Republican and Democratic parties.
