Analysis

4d ago

This market shows extreme asymmetry with a 2860% implied yield on the Yes side versus just 11.7% on the No side, reflecting the 6¢ price that prices Republicans at only 6% to win New Jersey's heavily Democratic seat in 2026. The $0 24-hour volume combined with $20k open interest and a wide 3¢ spread suggests very thin liquidity, making the quoted price potentially unreliable for actual execution. With a Cliff Risk Index of 16 and nearly two years until resolution, this appears to be a speculative long-shot position rather than an efficient market price.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 midterm New Jersey 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 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.
