Show full assessmentShow less

The rules clearly specify the conditions for resolving the 2026 Tennessee U.S. Senate election. Resolution is tied to the winning nominee representing the Republican party, explicitly handling potential nominee replacements and defining how third-party or independent runs are treated. The resolution mechanism relies on an objective trigger requiring three specific media outlets (Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC) to agree on the call, with an unambiguous fallback to official state certification if a consensus call is not reached. Timing covers potential run-offs directly without introducing open-ended discretion.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 midterm Tennessee U.S. Senate election, inclusive of any run-offs. A candidate shall be considered to represent a party in the event that he or she is the nominee of the party in question. Candidates other than the Democratic or Republican nominee (e.g., Greens, Libertarian, independent) may be added at a later date. Candidates who run as independents will not be encompassed by the “Democrat” or “Republican” options regardless of any affiliation they may have with the 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. The resolution source for this market is the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC. This market will resolve once all three sources call the race for the same candidate. If all three sources haven’t called the race in this state for the same candidate, this market will resolve based on the official certification.

Market explained

How it resolves

The market resolves to Yes if the official nominee of the Republican Party wins the 2026 midterm Tennessee U.S. Senate election, inclusive of any run-offs. If a named nominee is replaced before election day, the market resolves based on the replacement nominee. The market resolves to No if any other candidate wins, including independent candidates who are not considered Republican regardless of affiliation. Resolution is determined once the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC all call the race for the same candidate.
