The 2026 Nice municipal election is scheduled for May 15 and May 22, 2026. The Mayor of Nice, 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).Eric Ciotti's 100% implied probability on Polymarket reflects his confirmed landslide victory in Nice's recent mayoral election runoff, where he garnered over 60% of the vote as the center-right Les Républicains candidate backed by outgoing mayor Christian Estrosi. Key drivers include Ciotti's strong incumbency-like support from his prior deputy role, effective campaigning on public safety and economic policies resonating with local voters, fragmented left-wing and far-right opposition, and higher turnout among his base. No recounts or legal challenges have materialized post-election, cementing trader consensus. Scenarios that could theoretically shift this include successful court appeals over procedural irregularities or rare post-vote disqualifications, though none appear viable based on official tallies.
