Prediction markets currently give a 27% probability that Will United Russia win 355 or more seats in the next Russian State Duma election?. This contract trades at 27¢ on Polymarket, closing September 20, 2026. The 30¢ price implies United Russia will fall short of 355 seats, a significant threshold that would represent a supermajority loss from their current 324-seat position.
Analysis
The 30¢ price implies United Russia will fall short of 355 seats, a significant threshold that would represent a supermajority loss from their current 324-seat position. The extreme 543.5% implied yield on the "Yes" side suggests substantial mispricing or genuine uncertainty about whether the ruling party can gain 31+ seats in a potentially volatile 2026 election, though the thin $68 daily volume raises liquidity concerns for position sizing. The modest 2¢ spread and neutral regime score indicate relatively stable market conditions, but with 157 days to expiry, geopolitical or domestic political shifts could dramatically shift probabilities.
