Much attention has been paid to a series of recent polls, showing Frontrunner Christine Drazan en route to narrowly-defeating Tina Kotek by vote margins of 1-6%.  But another metric in determining a candidates’ chances are odds. Odds are very distinct from polling numbers. They project a candidate’s actual statistical chance of victory – not the projected vote spread.

Republican Christine Drazan’s 51.20-48.00% “lead” over Democrat Tina Kotek represents coin-flip odds, with a minor Drazan advantage.
