2 prediction markets price this story:

• Byron Donalds, 0-2% — the market puts it at 94%, with $12k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 3 Nov 2027. The outcome "Yes" occurs if Byron Donalds wins the 2026 Florida gubernatorial election with a margin of victory between 0% and 2%. The outcome "No" applies if his margin is outside that range or if he does not win. Readers often mistakenly believe this market resolves based on the linked story about Schwartzel winning a House seat, but it strictly depends on Donalds' performance in the gubernatorial election.
• At least 48% — the market puts it at 4%, with $207 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 3 Nov 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Byron Donalds receives at least 48% of the popular vote in Miami-Dade County for the 2026 Florida gubernatorial election. The outcome depends on the certified vote count from that specific county, not the statewide result. Readers often mistake the deadline as Election Day rather than the date of official certification.
