Analysis
This market is pricing an extremely precise outcome—exactly one Democratic Senate loss—at just 20%, which generates an unusually high 564.5% implied yield on the Yes side, suggesting either significant underpricing or that traders view this narrow threshold as unlikely relative to broader Democratic vulnerability. The $0 24-hour volume combined with $8,302 open interest and a tight 2¢ spread indicates illiquid conditions typical of niche political markets, making the high yield partially a liquidity premium rather than pure mispricing. With 259 days to expiry and a Cliff Risk Index of 4, this market faces meaningful uncertainty as we approach the 2026 midterms, though the stagnant 7-day price action suggests current sentiment is relatively settled around the 20¢ level.
Resolution rules
If exactly 1 members of the Senate Democrats lose re-election in 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.
