Resolution rules

Each outcome is a separate contract with its own rules. The rules for James Comer:

If James Comer has announced that they will run for Governor of Kentucky in 2027 after Issuance and before Jan 9, 2027, including running for the nomination of any political party to contest that office, then the market resolves to Yes. The person must publicly announce their campaign for it to be reported by a Source Agency. Merely filing campaign paperwork with the Federal Election Commission or similar entity is insufficient without a public announcement. The announcement must be for the specific office and election year listed. Exploratory committees or statements of interest without formal campaign announcements do not qualify. Running for a party's nomination to contest the office counts as running for that office. The announcement must come from the person themselves or their official campaign, not from speculation or third-party sources. An announcement made before Issuance does NOT resolve Yes. Announcing a campaign to contest this seat as an independent, or for any party's nomination, resolves YES. A person who announces and later withdraws still resolves YES.
