This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins the nomination for the Republican Party to contest the FL-09 congressional district seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections. The Republican primary will take place on August 18, 2026. If no nominee is announced by November 3, 2026, 11:59PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of official Republican sources, including https://www.rnc.org/. Any replacement of the nominee before election day will not change the resolution of the market.Thomas Chalifoux leads trader consensus at 51% implied probability in the FL-09 Republican primary due to his substantial self-funding—over $2 million reported through early 2026—affording superior advertising and ground game advantages, bolstered by name recognition from his competitive 2024 campaign. Justin Story trails at 31.5%, buoyed by his background as a former Marine Corps F/A-18 pilot and sixth-generation Central Floridian appealing to veteran and local voters. A fragmented five-candidate field dilutes opposition, with Marcus Carter, Jorge Malavet, and Howard Steven Rance lagging amid limited resources. Recent GOP passage of Gov. DeSantis' redrawn congressional map last week shifts FL-09 to a Trump +18 lean, heightening stakes ahead of the August 18 primary but not altering primary dynamics. No public polls available; odds reflect skin-in-the-game assessments of fundraising edges.
