MA Senate
Massachusetts Senate winner? (2026)
37k contracts traded · 34k open
Massachusetts is a safe Democratic hold with Ed Markey running for re-election. The market prices it as a formality; the only genuine contest a trader would watch is a Democratic primary challenge, which shows up in the nomination market rather than the general. As a general-election contract it is a calibration anchor for what near-certainty looks like on the board.
Quick Answer
As of October 12, 2026, Ed Markey leads the Massachusetts Senate market at 98¢ — real money putting the implied probability at 98%. Forecasters rate the seat Safe D (Cook Political Report, Inside Elections), so the gap between that rating and this price is the whole question.
Seat held by Ed Markey (D) — incumbent.
Why trust the price: prediction markets called all seven 2024 presidential swing states correctly, often while polling averages were still split. Our state-by-state audit grades where they missed too.

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.
