A significant amount was wagered on Texas Governor Greg Abbott's victory shortly before polls closed, but he is projected to have lost the election. Users on the Kalshi platform bet $2 million on Abbott's win, despite estimates indicating his defeat by Democrat Gina Hinojosa. This marks a shift in Texas towards a Democratic stronghold, with Abbott having previously been elected governor in 2014. The betting activity reflects a trend where investors use prediction markets to hedge against financial risks related to election outcomes.
