Trump's Endorsement Vaults Interim Senator Nordone To 80% Odds

Kalshi traders had Darline Graham Nordone at just 14% before Trump's nod, ahead of South Carolina's August 11 primary.

  • Nordone, appointed to fill her late brother Lindsey Graham's seat, faces an August 11 GOP primary.
  • Her Kalshi odds jumped from 14% to 80% right after Trump's endorsement, CNN's Harry Enten reported.
  • Enten called Trump's nod a 'golden ticket' in Republican primaries, citing the market's real-money bets.

Why it matters: A market moving 66 points on one endorsement is pricing loyalty to a man, not votes.
