3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Will Aleksandar Vučić be the next Prime Minister of Serbia? — the market puts it at 66%, with $88k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 25 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Aleksandar Vučić is elected by the National Assembly and formally sworn in as Prime Minister of Serbia before June 30, 2028, at 11:59 PM ET. It resolves to No if he does not assume the office through this specific process within that timeframe. Readers often mistake interim or caretaker appointments for a valid resolution, but only an elected and sworn-in Prime Minister counts.
  • Aleksandar Vučić — the market puts it at 67%, with $254 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 31 Dec 2028. The market resolves to Yes if Aleksandar Vučić becomes Prime Minister of Serbia after the next general election and meets all constitutional requirements before December 31, 2028. It resolves to No if he does not assume that specific role within the stated timeframe. Readers often mistake the deadline for the end of the election period rather than the final date for meeting constitutional requirements.
  • Will Miloš Vučević win the next Serbia presidential election? — the market puts it at 19%, with $219 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 2 May 2027. The Yes outcome occurs if Miloš Vučević wins the next Serbian presidential election, including any second round. The No outcome applies if he does not win. Readers often mistake the source of truth; the market resolves based on official results from the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia if credible reporting is ambiguous.

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.
