verbatim rules
polymarket
This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 midterm Iowa U.S. Senate election, inclusive of any run-offs.
A candidate shall be considered to represent a party in the event that he or she is the nominee of the party in question. Candidates other than the Democratic or Republican nominee (e.g., Greens, Libertarian, independent) may be added at a later date.
Candidates who run as independents will not be encompassed by the “Democrat” or “Republican” options regardless of any affiliation they may have with the party.
The resolution source for this market is the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC. This market will resolve once all three sources call the race for the same candidate. If all three sources haven’t called the race in this state for the same candidate, this market will resolve based on the official certification.

recent wire items
- Iowa Senate seat odds sit near 50-50 after Obama endorsement Polymarket 44%
- The Polymarket prediction market prices a 44% chance a Republican wins the Iowa Senate seat, implying a slight lean toward Democrat Josh Turek.
- Obama's endorsement of Turek is consistent with the near-even Polymarket odds, confirming the race is viewed as genuinely competitive.
- By contrast, the Polymarket contract on Alabama's Senate seat going Republican stands at 95%, illustrating how Iowa is an outlier among contested seats.
- Resolution is via UMA oracle using official election results; the contract settles after the general election.
