Trader consensus on turnout for the Texas U.S. Senate Republican primary runoff on May 26 reflects a close split between moderate (1.2–1.5 million votes at 35%) and lower (0.6–0.9 million at 31%) expectations, driven by historical patterns of sharp declines—often 50–70%—from initial primaries due to voter fatigue. The March 3 primary saw record midterm turnout fueled by competitive fields including Sen. John Cornyn, AG Ken Paxton, and Rep. Wesley Hunt, but runoff dynamics favor low-engagement base voters. Recent polls showing Paxton leading 53–37% signal potential conservative mobilization, yet massive ad spending exceeding $100 million and lack of a Trump endorsement keep higher bins suppressed. Separation could come from major endorsements, get-out-the-vote pushes before the April 27 registration deadline, or early voting trends starting May 18.

This market will resolve according to the total vote count in the Texas Republican Senate Primary runoff election (the race’s total canvass votes).
If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher range bracket.
If the results of the election aren’t known by November 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to the lowest range bracket.
The primary resolution source for this market will be information from the State of Texas, such as official statewide results published by the Texas Secretary of State (https://www.sos.state.tx.us/index.shtml); however, an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting may suffice.
