Description

The event tracks whether specific political figures deliver spoken remarks during the official programming of the 2026 Republican Midterm Convention. Participation is verified through confirmed appearances in live or recorded segments as part of the convention's scheduled events.

Kalshi

A speaker qualifies if they personally deliver attributable spoken remarks as part of the official Republican Midterm Convention programming at the American Airlines Center on September 9 or 10, 2026. Acceptable forms of speaking include live podium remarks, participation in an official panel, delivering an introduction, engaging in an in-program interview or moderated discussion, or contributing to an official prerecorded speech segment. Simply attending, appearing silently on stage, being mentioned or shown in images or video footage, participating in outside media interviews, rallies, fundraisers, or unofficial side events does not count. Moreover, being merely scheduled to speak without actually doing so also does not qualify. Any claim that an individual is expected or scheduled to speak must be substantiated by confirmation from at least one Source Agency for the market to resolve as Yes. Each market operates independently, allowing multiple individuals to resolve as Yes simultaneously.

Frequently asked questions

On Kalshi, the dashboard for the 2026 Republican Convention speakers tracks the probabilities of various individuals being selected to speak at the event. You’ll find the current odds for each potential speaker, along with a price history chart showing how those probabilities have changed over time. The dashboard also displays the 24-hour trading volume, currently at $6,315, and the total volume traded to date, which is $70,424. This allows you to see which speakers are attracting the most attention and where traders are placing their bets.

Currently, it’s difficult to draw direct comparisons between this market and traditional polling data, as the event is still some time away. Polling often reflects stated preferences, while this market reflects what people are willing to put their money on. As the convention approaches and more information becomes available, we may see a convergence or divergence between the predictions made here and those from public opinion surveys. It’s important to remember that prediction markets can incorporate a wider range of information than polls, including insider knowledge and nuanced analysis.

This market resolves around Sep 19, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the official speaker list for the 2026 Republican Convention is released and verifiable from credible public reporting. The market will determine which individuals were officially announced as speakers at the convention. Any changes or additions to the speaker lineup after the convention begins will not affect the resolution of this market. The focus is solely on the speakers confirmed prior to and during the official proceedings.

Several factors could significantly impact this market. Major announcements from potential candidates, shifts in the Republican party's leadership, and prominent endorsements could all cause price fluctuations. Unexpected political events, such as significant legislative changes or controversies involving key figures, could also influence trading activity. Furthermore, any news regarding the convention’s planning or the availability of potential speakers will likely move the market. Monitoring media coverage and political developments will be crucial for understanding shifts in the probabilities reflected in this market.
