Analysis
This market shows extreme illiquidity with zero volume and open interest despite a 7-cent spread, suggesting minimal trader interest in Barbara Kahl's nomination prospects for OR-01. The 0% price reflects near-certain market consensus against her nomination, though the asymmetric implied yields (109.9% on No vs. 37.9% on Yes) indicate the market structure heavily penalizes betting against the consensus. With 566 days until the November 2027 close and only a 2 on the Cliff Risk Index, there's substantial time for political developments, but the complete absence of liquidity makes this contract effectively non-tradeable at present.
Resolution rules
If Barbara Kahl wins the nomination for the Republican Party to contest the 2026 OR-01 House seat, then the market resolves to Yes.
