New Jersey is a safe Democratic hold with Cory Booker running for re-election. The market prices it as a formality; the state’s federal races have not been genuinely competitive in years, and the contract sits deep on the Democratic side. A floor reference for near-certainty, not a trade.
Quick Answer

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.
The live board above shows the current market favorite — read each contract’s price as the market’s implied probability, so a 55¢ contract is a 55% chance. Going into the cycle the seat is held by Cory Booker (Democrat) and rated safe d; because a real-money market reprices continuously, take today’s favorite off the price, not a static rating.
