The Polymarket contract for Democrats to win the Maine Senate race in 2026 was priced at 59.5%, down 4.0 probability points over 24 hours, with $1.4M traded. According to PredictionBubbles’ movers board, the contract was among the declining markets in its politics/elections category.
The price still put a Democratic victory above 50%, despite the downward adjustment. The supplied material does not identify a specific poll, campaign development or other event behind the move.
PredictionBubbles ranks contracts by the size of their probability-point changes over 24 hours, rather than their relative percentage changes. Its board draws prices from Polymarket and Kalshi every 15 minutes; the supplied snapshot was read from the venues on 26 Oct 2026, 04:07 UTC.
According to PredictionBubbles, the ranking covers 2,029 markets with lifespans longer than 14 days. Only open contracts with a valid 24-hour comparison qualify, and volume and liquidity do not affect their position in the movement ranking.
The $1.4M traded figure provides context for the Maine contract, but the supplied headline does not specify its measurement period. It should therefore not be treated as the amount traded during the 24-hour decline, nor as a measure of available liquidity.
The board records a change in market pricing, not an independently established change in the election’s prospects. Without contract-specific reporting on the catalyst or order-book depth, the evidence supports a narrower conclusion: traders were pricing a Democratic win lower than a day earlier.
Carolina’s market-implied probability of winning the Pro Football NFC South Division stood at 34.0% on Kalshi, down 16.0 percentage points, with $748K traded, in the market update published Oct 26, 2026, at 12:24 AM ET.
The decline represents a lower market assessment of Carolina’s division prospects. The supplied material does not identify a game result, team announcement or other specific development behind the change.
According to predictionbubbles.net, its movers board measures probability-point changes over 24 hours using prices obtained from Polymarket and Kalshi. The supplied board snapshot was read from the venues on 26 Oct 2026, at 04:07 UTC, and the data refresh every 15 minutes.
The site ranks moves by their absolute size, rather than by relative percentage change or trading volume. Its comparison covers 2,029 markets lasting longer than 14 days, excluding short-lived fixtures that can move sharply as settlement approaches.
The accompanying news-search summary reported no significant new platform headline in the preceding 30 minutes. It said the search recirculated items already used on Oct. 25 or otherwise excluded from that update, leaving no newly identified reporting to explain Carolina’s decline.
The $748K traded provides activity context, but the supplied headline does not specify its measurement period. Nor does that figure establish available liquidity or explain what drove the price lower. According to predictionbubbles.net, trading activity and probability movement are separate measures.
