The 2026 Lyon municipal election is scheduled for May 15 and May 22, 2026. The Mayor of Lyon, France is elected via a three-round system; if no candidate obtains an absolute majority after two rounds of voting the election proceeds to a third round which requires only a simple majority. In case of a tie, the oldest candidate wins. This market will resolve according to the candidate that wins this election. If the results of the election are not known by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". This market will resolve based on the election results, as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the French Ministry of the Interior (élections.interieur.gouv.fr).Incumbent mayor Grégory Doucet commands near-unanimous trader consensus at 100% to win the Lyon mayoral election, reflecting his entrenched position from the 2020 victory and sustained popularity amid fragmented opposition. Recent developments include Jean-Michel Aulas's September announcement as a right-wing challenger and Nathalie Perrin-Gilbert's dissident left bid, but these have failed to erode Doucet's lead in early polling averages, with Alexandre Dupalais trailing far behind. The 2026 municipal vote follows France's two-round system requiring absolute majority, favoring the ecologist-led coalition's incumbency advantage and organizational strength. Barring major scandals, health issues, or a unified opposition coalition, no realistic scenarios threaten this outcome before the March election.
