Ron DeSantis’s contract to win the next presidential election ranked first among Kalshi politics contracts by 24-hour trading volume, according to a leaderboard snapshot from PredictionMarketPicks.
The snapshot, taken at 4:21 a.m. EST on November 4, showed about 497,000 contracts traded over the preceding 24 hours. PredictionMarketPicks published the report on Nov 4, 2026, at 4:30 AM ET.
Volume leadership at a low price
The DeSantis contract was priced at 5 cents, an increase of 2 cents over 24 hours, according to PredictionMarketPicks. Open interest stood at 2.6 million.
The figures put DeSantis at the top of the reported politics trading-volume ranking, not necessarily the presidential-election price ranking. The supplied snapshot includes no rival candidates’ prices or volumes.
What it means for prediction markets
- Activity and price tell different stories: The contract led politics trading by 24-hour volume while remaining priced at 5 cents.
- The move warrants context: A 2-cent rise accompanied about 497,000 contracts traded, but the snapshot does not identify what drove either measure.
- Timing limits the comparison: The ranking reflects the 4:21 a.m. EST snapshot on November 4, rather than a full-day result.
