3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Will the Republicans win the Illinois governor race in 2026? — the market puts it at 0%, with $16k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 4 Nov 2026. The Yes outcome occurs if a Republican wins the 2026 Illinois governor election, while No applies if any other candidate wins. The market resolves once the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC all call the race for the same candidate, or based on official certification if they do not agree.
  • Will the Republicans win the Illinois Senate race in 2026? — the market puts it at 0%, with $5k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 4 Nov 2026. The 'Yes' outcome occurs if a Republican wins the 2026 Illinois U.S. Senate election, including any run-offs. The 'No' outcome applies if a Democrat or independent candidate wins. Readers often mistake the deadline for the final certification date instead of the moment when the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC all call the race for the same candidate.
  • Will the Democratic Party win the IL-04 House seat? — the market puts it at 98%, with $3k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 4 Nov 2026. The Yes outcome occurs if the winner of Illinois's 4th congressional district seat in the 2026 midterm elections is affiliated with the Democratic Party. The No outcome applies if that winner belongs to the Republican Party or any other party.

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.
