3 prediction markets price this story:
- Will the Republicans win the Illinois Senate race in 2026? — resolved “No” on 4 Nov 2026. The 'Yes' outcome occurs if a Republican wins the 2026 Illinois U.S. Senate election, including any run-offs. The 'No' outcome applies if a Democrat or independent candidate wins. Readers often mistake the deadline for the final certification date instead of the moment when the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC all call the race for the same candidate.
- Will the Republicans win the Illinois governor race in 2026? — resolved “No” on 4 Nov 2026. The Yes outcome occurs if a Republican wins the 2026 Illinois governor election, while No applies if any other candidate wins. The market resolves once the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC all call the race for the same candidate, or based on official certification if they do not agree.
- Illinois — the market puts it at 1%, closing 3 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Illinois has the highest 2024 Harris-minus-Trump presidential margin among states where a Republican wins a 2026 U.S. Senate election. It resolves to No in all other cases. Readers often mistake this for a prediction about who will win the governorship or confuse the relevant election year.
Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
