One prediction market prices this story:

  • Karen Bass, ≥2% — resolved “No” on 6 Nov 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Karen Bass wins the 2026 Los Angeles mayoral election by a margin of at least 2% but less than 100%. The outcome depends solely on the official results of that specific election. Readers often mistake the linked news story about her apology for the resolution criteria, but only the final vote count matters.
