- Lula da Silva, ≥7% — resolved “No” on 26 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Lula da Silva wins the 2026 Brazilian presidential runoff by a margin of at least 7%. It resolves to No if his winning margin is less than 7% or if he loses the election. Readers often mistake the linked news story about workweek approval for the actual election result, but only the final runoff vote count matters.
