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.”
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
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.
Vivek Ramaswamy
Ben Carson
