The 2026 midterm elections are scheduled to be held on November 3, 2026, with congressional primaries running from March through September. This market will resolve according to the number of Republican House incumbents who do not win their nominating election to move on to the general election as a result of the 2026 midterm primary elections. An incumbent will be considered not to have won their election if they are not declared the winner of the election they sought, including if they withdraw, suspend, or otherwise leave the race at any point after officially registering as a candidate, regardless of the reason. Incumbents who do not officially register as candidates for reelection will not be considered. This market will resolve based on the results of all House nominating elections, including party primaries, top-two or jungle primaries, and primaries for special elections, that are scheduled to occur between March 1 and September 30, 2026. If a required runoff for any such election or a subsequent qualifying round in a non-partisan primary system could change the market’s outcome, the market will remain open until that contest is conclusively called by this market’s resolution sources. A candidate's party will be determined by their ballot-listed or otherwise identifiable affiliation with that party at the time of their nominating election. Members of the House of Representatives who are "delegates” or “resident commissioners” not chosen by the people of a state are not included for purposes of resolving this market. The resolution source for this market will be the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC. This market will resolve once all three sources have conclusively called all relevant nominating elections. If all three sources do not achieve consensus in calling the relevant races for this market, it will resolve based on official state certification of the nominating election results.**Trader consensus around 4-6 Republican House incumbents failing to win renomination reflects the unusually active 2026 primary cycle, where at least four GOP members have already lost amid Trump-backed challenges, scandals, and redistricting effects.** Prominent defeats include Thomas Massie in Kentucky and Dan Crenshaw in Texas, driven by alignment disputes with the president, alongside Andy Ogles in Tennessee and Cory Mills in Florida, where ethics issues and local dynamics played key roles. This pace exceeds typical postwar averages for a non-redistricting year, with limited additional contests remaining that could add one or two more losses. Scenarios that could shift the outcome include stronger-than-expected incumbent resilience in late-summer primaries or a surge of new challengers capitalizing on turnout patterns in battleground districts.
