2 prediction markets price this story:

  • Above 4.1M — the market puts it at 94%, with $435 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 3 Nov 2027. The outcome is "Yes" if the total number of votes cast in the Georgia Governor General Election exceeds 4,100,000. The outcome is "No" if the total vote count is 4,100,000 or fewer. Readers often mistake the deadline for when the vote count must be finalized, but the resolution depends solely on the final official total.
  • Governor — resolved “Yes” on 4 Nov 2026. The market resolves to Yes if a candidate wins more than 50% of the vote in the first round of the 2026 Georgia gubernatorial general election. This outcome eliminates all runoffs and instant-runoff tabulations. Readers often mistake early voting totals for final results, but only the official certified winner after Election Day counts.

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.
