One prediction market prices this story:
- Democratic party — the market puts it at 64%, with $848 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 7 Nov 2029. The outcome is Yes if a Democrat is sworn in as a U.S. Senator from North Carolina for the term starting in 2029. The outcome is No if that specific condition is not met. Readers often mistake the date of election victory for the resolution deadline, but only the swearing-in date matters.
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.
