• BC Conservatives — the market puts it at 1%, closing 24 Oct 2027. The outcome is Yes if the Conservative Party of B.C. finishes second in the 2026 provincial election based on official certified results. The outcome is No if they do not finish second. Readers often mistake current polling numbers for the final result, but only the certified election results count.
