This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins the nomination for the Democratic Party to contest the TX-18 congressional district seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections. The Democratic primary will take place on March 3, 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.Trader consensus heavily favors incumbent Rep. Christian Menefee at 73% implied probability to win the TX-18 Democratic primary runoff against Rep. Al Green on May 26, driven by Menefee's 46%-44% first-round lead in the March 3 primary amid low turnout of about 95,000 votes, his January special election victory filling the vacancy left by the late Rep. Sylvester Turner, and consistent polling edges of 5–24 points from University of Houston and Lake Research surveys. Redistricting fused Green's longtime district into the safely Democratic TX-18, pitting two incumbents, but Menefee's profile as former Harris County attorney and recent endorsements, including from state Rep. La'Sha Simmons, bolster his momentum heading into the low-turnout runoff, where Edwards (7.7%) and Brown (2%) were eliminated.
