Analysis

This market reflects traders' assessment that a specific candidate has a 76% chance of winning the NY-04 Democratic primary. The leading candidate currently holds this probability advantage, with the second-place candidate at 11%, indicating meaningful separation but not certainty. Primary elections depend on voter turnout, candidate positioning, and shifts in district demographics or recent endorsements. The probability could move substantially based on polling shifts, debate performance, or unexpected candidate withdrawals. The primary election date itself serves as the ultimate resolution point, and interim developments like campaign finance disclosures, endorsements from established party figures, or organized labor support could shift trader expectations measurably in the weeks leading up to voting.

  • Current price reflects a significant but not overwhelming lead; the frontrunner would need to maintain current support levels or improve to reach 80%+ territory
  • Runoff scenarios or ranked-choice voting rules, if applicable in NY-04, create additional complexity that could shift outcomes compared to simple plurality assumptions
  • Candidate spending, advertising, and field operations in the final weeks typically drive observable momentum shifts that traders respond to
  • Endorsements or organizational support from established Democratic figures can move probabilities by 10-20 percentage points if perceived as consequential
  • Historical turnout patterns in NY-04 primary elections determine which demographic groups show up, directly affecting which candidate benefits most

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.
