This market tracks predictions about who will be appointed as the next Attorney General of the United States under Donald Trump's potential administration. The current consensus probability for the leading outcome stands at 99.9%, aggregated from Kalshi and Polymarket. Resolution will be based on official information from the White House or United States Senate, with credible reporting as a secondary source. Watch for any formal appointment or Senate confirmation before January 20, 2029.
This market will resolve according to the next individual to formally assume the position of Attorney General of the United States between market creation and January 19, 2029, 11:59 PM ET. A person will be considered to formally assume the position of Attorney General of the United States if they are appointed to the position by the President and confirmed by the Senate, or if they assume the position through a recess appointment. Acting or interim holders of the specified position do not qualify. If no individual assumes the position by January 19, 2029 at 11:59PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". The resolution source for this market will be official information from the White House or United States Senate; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
The first new person appointed to the position of Attorney General resolves the market. Acting and interim office holders are excluded from consideration. Persons confirmed by the Senate or appointed via recess appointment qualify, including recess appointments later struck down as illegal. The market resolves based on the first new appointment before January 20, 2029.
Key signals that could shift this market include high-profile endorsements, cabinet reshuffles, media speculation about contenders, and legal or scandal-related developments affecting candidates. Any public statement from the administration about the selection process — or unexpected withdrawals — may cause rapid re-pricing as traders reassess the odds of each potential nominee.
