The rules clearly specify how the margin of victory is computed using the official vote counts published by Florida's election certification authority. The primary risk lies in edge-case mechanics: if the margin falls precisely on a boundary between brackets, the rules dictate resolution to the higher margin bracket. Additionally, there are specific tie-breaking rules based on alphabetical order of the candidate's last name rather than a shared outcome. The source is grounded in official state certification, with consensus reporting allowed as a fallback, and resolution will pause for any official recounts until certification is final.

Resolution rules

The 2026 Florida gubernatorial election is currently expected to be held on November 3, 2026. This market will resolve according to the margin of victory between the top two candidates in the specified election. The "margin of victory" is defined as the absolute difference between the percentages of valid votes received by the first-place and second-place candidates. Percentages of the valid votes received by each candidate will be determined by dividing the total number of valid votes each of the top two candidates receives by the sum of all valid votes cast in the election. For purposes of this market, candidates nominated by the Democratic & Republican Parties will represent the options for "Democrat" and "Republican," respectively. Independent candidates will not represent options for either party. The candidates may be named in the contract for the convenience of traders. In the event that any named candidate is replaced as the nominee of their respective party prior to election day, the name in the contract will be updated and the market will resolve based on the replacement nominee of the party. If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher margin bracket. If two or more candidates tie for the most valid votes in this election, and the tie is between two candidates listed, this market will resolve to the lowest margin bracket for the candidate whose ballot-listed last name comes first in alphabetical order. If the tie is between a listed candidate and an unlisted candidate, this market will resolve to the lowest margin bracket for the listed candidate. If the tie is between two or more unlisted candidates, this market will resolve to "Other." If the listed candidate is represented in this market group as "Republican" or "Democrat" their ballot-listed last name will still be used for tiebreaking. This market will resolve based on the official vote count once the count has been made official. If the election results are not known definitively by June 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". If a recount is initiated before the vote total has been made official, the market will remain open until the recount is completed and the vote is made official. The primary resolution source for this market will be the official results of the 2026 Florida gubernatorial election as published by the state electoral authority responsible for certifying the results of the election; however, an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting may also be used.

Market explained

This market measures whether the Republican Party nominee wins the 2026 Florida gubernatorial election with a margin of victory between 0% and 3% over the second-place candidate.

How it resolves

The market resolves to Yes if the official Republican Party nominee wins the election with a margin of victory between 0% and 3% of all valid votes cast, inclusive of the higher bracket if falling exactly on a boundary. The market resolves to No if the Republican nominee loses or wins by a margin outside the 0%-3% range. If there is a tie for the most valid votes, specific tiebreaking rules determine the winner, including alphabetical sorting by ballot-listed last name. The market resolves to Other if results are not known definitively by June 30, 2027, at 11:59 PM ET, or if a tie occurs between two or more unlisted candidates. Resolution is decided using official results certified by the state electoral authority, or an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting.
