• Jon Ossoff — the market puts it at 95%, with $3k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 3 Nov 2027. The market resolves to Yes if a Democrat takes office as a U.S. Senator from Georgia for the term starting in 2027. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the linked news story about campaign support for the actual election result.
• Will Jon Ossoff win the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination? — the market puts it at 14%, with $55k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 8 Nov 2028. The Yes outcome occurs if Jon Ossoff wins and accepts the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination, as confirmed by official party sources. The No outcome applies in all other cases. Readers often mistake early speculation or primary leads for an actual nomination.
• At least 66% — the market puts it at 16%, closing 3 Nov 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Jon Ossoff receives at least 66% of the popular vote in Gwinnett County during the first round of the 2026 U.S. Senate election. The outcome depends on the certified percentage from that specific county, not the statewide results or any other jurisdiction. Readers often mistake the deadline for the general election date rather than the certification of the Gwinnett County vote count.
