Polymarket 2028 Election Market Hits $645,714,472 Volume as Vance 20.25% vs Rubio 15.45% and Newsom 12.15%

On Polymarket, the “Presidential Election Winner 2028” multi-candidate market had $645,714,472 in volume at the timestamp provided, with JD Vance the leading line at 20.25% Yes versus 79.75% No. Marco Rubio followed at 15.45% Yes / 84.55% No, while Gavin Newsom was priced at 12.15% Yes / 87.85% No, indicating a dispersed top tier rather than a runaway favorite. Longer-shot pricing showed Donald Trump at 1.45% Yes / 98.55% No and Ron DeSantis at 1.25% Yes / 98.75% No, signaling limited conviction in late-cycle comeback bids.
