This market resolves based on which party wins the South Carolina 3rd congressional district in the 2026 midterm elections. The rules provide clear criteria for determining a candidate's party affiliation, including a specific caucus-intent provision for independent or third-party candidates. Primary resolution relies on a consensus of credible reporting, which leaves room for decider interpretation regarding what constitutes a consensus, but there is a definitive fallback to official Federal Election Commission results if reporting is ambiguous. Timing is tied to when all 2026 House races are called nationwide, which could introduce minor delays if other districts face recounts or protracted counts.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the party of the candidate who wins the SC-03 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/).
