Prices and activity
The reported prices put Abbott’s advantage over Hinojosa at 29 cents on Polymarket and 32 cents on Kalshi. Both platforms favored the same candidate, though Kalshi priced Abbott 2 cents higher and Hinojosa 1 cent lower.
WinDailySports reported total volume of about $1.5 million on Polymarket and about 12 million contracts on Kalshi. Those figures use different units—dollars and contracts—and therefore do not provide a direct comparison of trading activity.
The report was published October 31, 2026, at 10:45 AM ET. The supplied figures offer a price snapshot, without an earlier benchmark to establish how either candidate’s standing had changed.
What it means for prediction markets
- Consistent favorite: Abbott led on both platforms in the October 31 update; the prices reflect market positioning, not a confirmed election outcome.
- Small cross-platform differences: Abbott’s price differed by 2 cents between venues, while Hinojosa’s differed by 1 cent.
- Volume needs context: Polymarket’s dollar volume and Kalshi’s contract count should not be treated as equivalent measures.
- No trend established: The snapshot alone does not show whether traders were increasing or reducing either candidate’s chances.
