Analysis
This market shows extreme asymmetry with a 2425% implied yield on the Yes side versus just 13.7% on the No side, reflecting the 7¢ price that prices in only a 7% Republican win probability in this heavily Democratic district. The zero 24-hour volume combined with $18.7M open interest and a tight 1¢ spread suggests this is a stale-priced position with limited recent trading activity, making the quoted price potentially unreliable for actual execution. With 200 days to expiry and a Cliff Risk Index of 13, the market has moderate event risk, though the neutral regime score indicates no unusual volatility conditions are currently priced in.
Resolution rules
This market will resolve according to the party of the candidate who wins the CA-51 congressional district seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections. The midterm elections will take place on November 4, 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/).
