A price of 62¢ on Democrats means the market believes there's a 62% chance Democrats take the Senate. Buy Yes at 62¢ and you risk 62¢ to win 38¢ if you're right. Prices move with news, polls, and big bets — which is exactly what our Whale Watch tracks every day.

⚠️ Not financial advice: election odds swing hard on single polls and headlines. Never bet money you can't afford to lose, and always read a market's resolution rules before trading.
