This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 midterm North Carolina 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.Former North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper holds a commanding position in the 2026 Senate race against Republican nominee Michael Whatley, the former RNC chair, as consistent polling averages show the Democrat ahead by roughly 8-11 points among likely voters in surveys from August and early September. Cooper benefits from high statewide name recognition, prior executive experience, and a fundraising edge that has allowed sustained campaign operations in this open-seat contest. Trader consensus reflected in the current odds aligns with these polling trends and the limited time remaining before the November 3 election. Potential shifts could arise from intensified Republican advertising, a scheduled Trump rally, or late movement among undecided voters in a state that has trended competitive in recent federal races.
