ME Gov
Maine Governor winner? (2026)
57k contracts traded · 39k open
Maine opens up with Janet Mills term-limited, in a state that splits its ticket more readily than most and runs ranked-choice primaries. The governor contract sits beside a genuine toss-up Senate race and a Senate-and-Governor combination contract, so the price here is one of the few governor markets that can be read against a second statewide number. Watch the gap between the two offices rather than either in isolation.
Quick Answer
As of September 17, 2026, Hannah Pingree leads the Maine governor market at 94¢ — real money putting the implied probability at 94%. The seat is open, so that price is the market’s read on the field and the environment, with no incumbent anchoring it.
Seat held by Janet Mills (D) — open seat; term-limited.
Kalshi quotes 3 priced legs here, not two — read the leader against the whole board, because a third leg is probability the two-party numbers leave out.

How to read this
Each contract pays $1 at resolution, so the price in cents is the market’s implied probability — a 58¢ contract is a 58% chance. When the leading price sits near 50¢, the market is telling you the race is a genuine coin flip. A leg with no price shows a dash; we never fill one in.
Maine also elects a U.S. senator on November 3, 2026, and Kalshi prices that race separately. Kalshi additionally lists a four-outcome Senate-and-Governor combination contract for Maine, priced against the product of its two legs on the Senate race page.
The live board above lists every contract Kalshi quotes on the Maine governor race — one leg per candidate or party — with its current price. We publish the names the market prices rather than a hand-maintained field, so the board is the answer and it updates every 15 minutes. Read each price as the market’s implied probability that leg wins.
Yes. Janet Mills (Democrat) is term-limited, so no incumbent is on the November 3, 2026 ballot. Every 2026 governor race Kalshi prices is an open seat, which is why these contracts move on the field and the national environment rather than on an incumbency anchor.
The Quick Answer at the top of this page states the leading contract and its price as of the last refresh. A leg priced in the 80s or 90s is the market calling the race; a leading price near 50¢ is the market saying it does not know. We carry no forecaster rating for governor races, so the price stands on its own here rather than against a published band.
Kalshi lists it under the event ticker GOVPARTYME-26 — one YES/NO contract per leg, each settling at $1 if that side wins the November 3, 2026 election and $0 otherwise. Every price on this page links straight to the live market. Kalshi is CFTC-regulated and open to traders in all 50 states. Maine also has a 2026 Senate race on the board, linked below.
