Will the Republicans win the Pennsylvania governor race in 2026?

This market is pricing Republicans at an extremely depressed 7¢, implying only a 7% win probability in a state they've historically competed in, yet the zero 24-hour volume and $21,914 open interest suggest minimal liquidity backing this bearish view. The asymmetric implied yields—2,426.6% for Yes versus 13.7% for No—combined with a 13 Cliff Risk Index flag potential structural distress, indicating this pricing may reflect illiquidity constraints rather than genuine conviction about GOP prospects. The recent 1¢ price decline over seven days and wide 3¢ spread further suggest this is a thin, potentially mispriced market where sharp moves could occur if volume materializes.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 Pennsylvania 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.
