This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 Idaho gubernatorial election. A candidate shall be considered to represent a party in the event that he or she is the nominee of the party in question. Candidates other than the Democratic or Republican nominee (e.g., Greens, Libertarian, independent) may be added at a later date. 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. The resolution source for this market is the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC. This market will resolve once all three sources call the race for the same candidate. If all three sources haven’t called the race in this state for the same candidate, this market will resolve based on the official certification.
Incumbent Republican Governor Brad Little secured his party's nomination in the May 2026 primary with 59 percent of the vote and enters the November general election as the clear frontrunner in a state with a long record of Republican dominance in gubernatorial contests. Recent polling shows Little holding leads of 20 points or more over Democratic nominee Terri Pickens, reflecting strong support among the state's conservative voter base and limited Democratic statewide success in recent cycles. Trader consensus reflected in current market pricing assigns the Republican nominee a commanding position consistent with these structural factors. Late developments such as major scandals, health issues, or unexpected shifts in turnout could still alter the outcome before Election Day.
