This market resolves on standard terms for a US congressional election seat, matching the outcome of the 2026 NC-09 House race. Party affiliation is explicitly defined by ballot listing, with clear fallback rules for independent candidates based on caucus intent. Resolution relies primarily on a consensus of credible media reporting, with an official fallback to the Federal Election Commission if any ambiguity arises. While relying on media consensus introduces some decider discretion relative to an official certification, the clear fallback and straightforward criteria leave little room for unexpected interpretations.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the party of the candidate who wins the NC-09 congressional district seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections. The midterm elections will take place on November 3, 2026. ​A candidate's party will be determined by their ballot-listed or otherwise identifiable affiliation with that party at the time all of the 2026 House elections are conclusively called by this market's resolution sources. A candidate without a ballot-listed affiliation to either the Democrat or Republican parties will be considered a member of one of these parties based on the party with which they most recently expressed their intent to caucus at the time all of the House elections are conclusively called by this market's resolution sources. This market will resolve based on the result of the election as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the United States government, specifically the Federal Election Commission (https://www.fec.gov/).
