How to read these odds

Each percentage is the market's implied probability that the person becomes the 2028 Democratic nominee. Someone priced at 20% has, in the market's view, about a 20 percent chance. These prices come from traders backing candidates with real money, so they move as news breaks and money shifts. A candidate can climb or fall fast on a single event.

The numbers across a crowded field do not add to a clean 100 percent, because each candidate's price carries a small margin and the market is not perfectly efficient. Read each figure on its own as that candidate's implied chance.

Where these odds come from

These figures come live from the 2028 Democratic nominee market on Polymarket, the largest crypto prediction market. The market runs on-chain, so the prices are public and update continuously as trades go through. That makes them a live read of what the market thinks, rather than a static number that may be days old.
