Iowa’s Democratic contenders show sharply different odds on Kalshi

DeFi Rate reports Kalshi prices Democrat Rob Sand at 88 percent for governor and Josh Turek at about 53 percent in the Senate race as of 7:15 a.m. Eastern on November 3, a gap of about 35 points between two Democrats on the same ballot, down from 43 points on October 21.

Kalshi priced Democrat Rob Sand at 88 percent in Iowa’s governor race, compared with about 53 percent for Josh Turek in the Senate contest, according to DeFi Rate. The snapshot was taken at 7:15 a.m. Eastern on November 3.

The roughly 35-point difference separates two Democrats appearing on the same ballot. Sand’s price indicated a substantially stronger likelihood of winning, while Turek’s contest remained close to evenly priced.

The gap has narrowed

According to DeFi Rate, the difference between the two candidates’ market probabilities stood at 43 points on October 21. By November 3, that spread had narrowed to about 35 points.

The supplied figures do not establish whether the narrowing came from a change in Sand’s price, Turek’s price or both. DeFi Rate’s report was published on Nov 3, 2026, at 1:30 PM ET; the quoted probabilities reflect the earlier morning snapshot.

What it means for prediction markets

  • Same ballot, different expectations: Kalshi’s prices distinguish sharply between the Democrats’ prospects in the governor and Senate races.
  • A narrower spread is not a shared trajectory: The gap declined from 43 points to about 35 points, but the provided data do not show each candidate’s intervening price movements.
  • Timing matters: The 88 percent and about 53 percent readings are probabilities from 7:15 a.m. Eastern on November 3, not election results or necessarily publication-time prices.
