This market will resolve according to the outcome of both the Gubernatorial and United States Senate general elections in Iowa that are currently scheduled for November 3, 2026. A candidate will be considered to represent a party by their ballot-listed affiliation or if they are the nominee of that party. 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. If the results of these elections are not conclusively known by March 31, 2027, or if an independent or third-party candidate wins one of these elections, this market will resolve to "Other". For purposes of this market, a "sweep" is when a party wins both races. The resolution source for this market is the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC. This market will resolve once all three sources have conclusively called the relevant Senate and Gubernatorial elections. If all three sources do not achieve consensus in calling the relevant races for this market, it will resolve based on the official certification. Open seats in both the Iowa U.S. Senate and governor races have produced closely contested general-election matchups between Republican U.S. Rep. Ashley Hinson and Democratic state Rep. Josh Turek for Senate, and Republican businessman Zach Lahn against Democratic state Auditor Rob Sand for governor. Recent polling averages show the Senate contest essentially even, rated a toss-up by multiple forecasters, while Sand holds a consistent lead in the governor race that has prompted ratings shifts toward Democrats. Strong Democratic fundraising, Lahn’s lower name recognition after a narrow primary win, and voter concerns over issues such as cancer rates and agriculture have supported the competitive positioning reflected in current trader consensus on split outcomes and the elevated share for other results. The November 3 election remains months away, leaving room for further shifts from additional polling or campaign developments.
