Will the Democrats win the Oregon governor race in 2026?

The market is pricing in overwhelming Democratic favorability at 87¢, but the extreme yield asymmetry—1,221.6% for No versus 27.3% for Yes—signals severe illiquidity and potential mispricing, with zero 24-hour volume suggesting this contract lacks meaningful price discovery. The modest $23k open interest combined with a 7 Cliff Risk Index indicates thin liquidity could produce sharp moves if new information emerges, making this more a reflection of baseline political sentiment than a reliable probability estimate. With nearly two years until the 2026 election, the neutral regime and tight 2¢ spread suggest the market has settled into a holding pattern, but the extreme No-side yield represents a substantial contrarian opportunity if Republicans gain ground in Oregon.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 Oregon gubernatorial election. 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.
