Each result is its own market, so the chances may not add up to exactly 100%.

The one trap

If no winner is known by June 30, 2027, the market settles as “Other”.

See all fine print

Polymarket goes by what major news outlets agree on. If that is unclear, it uses the official results from the Central Election Commission.
Someone holding the job temporarily before the election doesn’t count.
Official certified results can come weeks after news outlets call the race, so other venues may settle later or differently.
