2 prediction markets price this story:

  • Marine Le Pen — the market puts it at 48%, with $408 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 30 May 2028. The outcome is Yes if Marine Le Pen wins the next French presidential election. The outcome is No if she does not win. Readers often mistake the date of the linked Senate news story for the resolution deadline.
  • Will Marine Tondelier win the 2027 French presidential election? — the market puts it at 0%, with $17k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 19 Apr 2027. The Yes outcome occurs if Marine Tondelier wins the 2027 French presidential election, while No applies if she does not. The market resolves based on the official results reported by the French Ministry of the Interior or a consensus of credible reporting. Readers often mistake the deadline for knowing the winner as the end of the election period rather than December 31, 2027, at 11:59 PM ET.

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.
