Analysis

This contract asks whether Democrats will win exactly 6 seats in Virginia House of Representatives elections scheduled for November 2026. The 55% probability shown reflects the highest-priced outcome in this three-way market: Democrats winning exactly 10 seats instead. The current weighting suggests significant uncertainty about Democratic performance in Virginia, with outcomes ranging from 6 to 10+ seats clustered as plausible. Key drivers of the probability include Virginia's overall political lean, which has trended Democratic in statewide races, and the specific partisan composition of Virginia House districts. The primary resolution event is the November 2026 election itself, when actual seat counts will be determined. Until then, shifts in this probability would likely reflect changes in polling, demographic patterns, or campaign activity signaling how many seats Democrats might realistically capture.

  • Virginia's statewide electoral lean in recent cycles (2022, 2024) relative to national conditions
  • The number of competitive House districts where seat gains or losses are plausible
  • How campaign fundraising and candidate recruitment develops in Virginia House races through 2026
  • Changes in voter turnout expectations or demographic shifts in key districts
  • Polling data on generic ballot preferences for Democratic versus Republican candidates in Virginia

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.
