Analysis

This 43% probability reflects market expectations for a Democratic primary winner across multiple contests, aggregated from 18 different contracts on Polymarket. The contracts span congressional districts and state-level races, with varying levels of market activity. The probability would likely increase if frontrunner candidates gain fundraising advantages, endorsements from established party figures, or demonstrate polling leads in head-to-head matchups. Conversely, it would decrease if challengers gain ground through grassroots organizing or if unexpected candidates enter races. The primary election dates vary by state and district, ranging from late spring through mid-summer 2026, meaning uncertainty will gradually resolve over the coming months as voting occurs and results are tabulated.

  • Current market pricing shows significant variation across individual races, from 16¢ to 80¢, indicating substantial disagreement about likely winners even among the subset of tracked contracts
  • Trading volume across these contracts ranges from $625-$816 in 24-hour volume, suggesting moderate but not exceptionally deep liquidity in any single race
  • Multiple concurrent races at different electoral levels (congressional districts, state offices) are weighted together in this aggregate, creating exposure to varied political dynamics and regional factors
  • No single contract dominates the aggregate, meaning results depend on outcomes across numerous independent elections rather than a single high-stakes race
  • The May-June 2026 timeframe means many primaries have not yet occurred, leaving substantial time for candidate positioning, field changes, and shifts in voter preference

How we compute these odds

SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.

For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.

Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
