DeFi Rate, observing prices between 3:35 PM and 3:54 PM ET on November 4, shows the Kansas Governor winner market at above 99 percent for Democrat Cindy Holscher on Kalshi, a 73 point rise over seven days, with about 1.0 million dollars traded in 24 hours.

DeFi Rate observed the prices between 3:35 PM and 3:54 PM ET on November 4. Its account was published on Nov 4, 2026, at 4:00 PM ET.
A reversal from late October
The shift displaced Republican Ty Masterson as the market’s leading candidate. According to DeFi Rate, coverage through late October had shown Masterson trading at 65 to 77 cents in the same winner market.
DeFi Rate described Holscher’s seven-day advance as 73 percentage points and reported about $1.0 million traded over 24 hours. The supplied figures establish a sharp change in market pricing, but do not identify the developments behind it or confirm an election result.
What it means for prediction markets
- A pronounced favorite has emerged: Pricing above 99 percent indicates that Kalshi traders assigned Holscher a near-certain chance of winning during the observation window—not that the outcome was officially confirmed.
- The timing matters: The reported prices reflect November 4 observations from 3:35 PM to 3:54 PM ET, rather than a final settlement.
- Volume adds context, not an explanation: About $1.0 million traded in 24 hours, but the supplied reporting does not establish what drove the reversal from Masterson’s earlier lead.
