This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins the nomination for the Democratic Party to contest the IL-09 congressional district seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections. The Democratic primary will take place on March 17, 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 Democrat sources, including https://democrats.org/. Any replacement of the nominee before election day will not change the resolution of the market.Daniel Biss's commanding 100% trader consensus in the Illinois 9th Congressional District Democratic primary stems from his decisive victory on March 19, 2024, capturing 53% of the vote against Kate Abughazaleh's 22% and Laura Fine's 16%, with incumbent Jan Schakowsky retiring after 14 terms. Pre-election polls consistently showed Biss leading, bolstered by strong fundraising—over $3 million raised—and key endorsements from labor unions and progressive groups. This skin-in-the-game pricing reflects certified results from the Illinois State Board of Elections, with negligible volume on challengers. Realistic challenges, such as a recount or legal dispute, appear improbable given the 30+ point margin, though final certification could theoretically shift odds if anomalies emerge.
