The one trap

Official certified results can come weeks after news outlets call the race, so other venues may settle later or differently.

See all fine print
  • If two or more candidates tie for the most valid votes in this election, and the tie is between two candidates listed, the market settles as the lowest margin bracket for the candidate whose ballot-listed last name comes first in alphabetical order.
  • If the tie is between a listed candidate and an unlisted candidate, the market settles as the lowest margin bracket for the listed candidate.
