The market resolves based on the first individual formally nominated for Vice President by the Republican Party for the 2028 cycle who accepts the nomination. The criteria are standard and straightforward for a major political convention outcome. The resolution source relies on official party communications and records, which provide a clear public record of who receives and accepts the formal nomination. An explicit clause notes that any subsequent replacement of the nominee before election day does not alter the resolution, ensuring the market strictly tracks the initial formal nomination.
