Analysis
The Republican National Committee will select a city to host its 2026 midterm convention. Currently, Dallas is priced at 81%, substantially ahead of Las Vegas at 12% and Detroit at 3%. The RNC typically rotates convention locations and considers factors like existing venue capacity, state political importance, and logistics. Dallas has multiple large convention facilities and is located in a key battleground state. The main driver of the current pricing is likely Dallas's established infrastructure and historical precedent of the RNC visiting major Texas cities. The resolution depends on an official RNC announcement, which typically occurs 12-24 months before the convention date. Any scheduling conflicts, venue availability issues, or strategic shifts in party priorities could alter these odds before a final decision is made.
- ›RNC must announce the 2026 midterm convention host city; announcement date and timing unknown but typically follows party leadership decisions
- ›Dallas has major convention facilities (Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, American Airlines Center) and Texas is a battleground state with significant delegate representation
- ›Las Vegas offers substantial venue capacity and geographic diversity, but competes with Dallas on logistics and state electoral importance
- ›Detroit represents a Rust Belt alternative but currently prices at 3%, suggesting low market confidence relative to the two frontrunners
- ›No scheduled announcement or official bidding process appears imminent as of June 2026, leaving significant uncertainty about the decision timeline

How we compute these odds
SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.
For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.
Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
