This market resolves based on which party wins the TX-02 congressional district election in November 2026. The rules clearly define how party affiliation is handled, including explicit guidance for independent or third-party candidates based on their stated caucus intentions. Resolution relies primarily on a consensus of credible reporting rather than a single named official call, though the Federal Election Commission is specified as an official fallback if ambiguity arises. While standard post-election counting and canvassing timelines apply, the core criteria are straightforward with minimal risk of unexpected interpretations.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the party of the candidate who wins the TX-02 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/).
