Description
This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 midterm South Carolina U.S. Senate election, inclusive of any run-offs. 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.

Frequently asked questions
Currently, prediction market odds often reflect a different perspective than traditional polling averages. While polls aim to capture a snapshot of voter intentions at a specific moment, this market aggregates the beliefs of a diverse group of traders who continuously update their assessments based on new information. Discrepancies can arise due to factors like differing methodologies, weighting of respondents, and the inclusion of informed traders in the prediction market. These differences can be particularly noticeable when considering the potential for late-breaking events or shifts in voter sentiment.
On Predict, this market is priced through a continuous order book where traders buy and sell contracts representing each possible outcome. The price of a contract reflects the market’s collective assessment of its probability. As more traders buy a contract, its price increases, indicating a higher perceived chance of that outcome occurring. On Predict, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. The current price movements are driven by factors like news events, polling data, and the overall flow of trading activity. This dynamic pricing mechanism allows for a constantly updated forecast of the election’s result.
This market resolves around Nov 4, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. Resolution will be based on the official results announced by election authorities, determining which candidate wins the South Carolina Senate seat. The platform will verify the outcome against these sources to ensure accuracy and finalize the market. Traders holding contracts corresponding to the winning candidate will receive a payout, while those holding contracts for losing candidates will not.
Several signals or events could significantly move this market before Nov 4, 2026. Major developments in the campaign, such as significant endorsements, impactful debates, or unexpected fundraising surges, could all shift trader sentiment. Polling data releases, particularly those showing substantial changes in voter preferences, will likely influence prices. Additionally, any unforeseen events affecting the candidates or the political landscape – like scandals or major policy announcements – could lead to substantial market movement. The market will react to any new information that alters perceptions of the likely outcome.
