4-bullet brief | narrative

Kalshi prices 89% on the Republican winning the TX-28 House race, trading volume up 4,293x day over day.
Trump's Texas Senate race tightening to the margin of error is a Senate-level story; the TX-28 House contest remains heavily one-sided by prediction market pricing.
The volume surge of 4,293x is a strong signal of fresh positioning following Trump's campaign activity and tightening Senate race news.
Resolves via Library of Congress official election results; House and Senate races in Texas are distinct contracts, the House seat remains lopsided even as Senate attention grows.
