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 early presidential elections are officially announced before the resolution date, the market settles as "Yes" regardless of whether the elections are later postponed, canceled, or ultimately held.
