A special election is scheduled for August 18, 2026 to fill the seat of California’s 14th Congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives. This market will resolve according to the winner of this election. This market includes any potential runoff election or second round. If the results of this election are not definitively known by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to “Other”. The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of official sources, including: https://www.sos.ca.gov/.Trader consensus assigns State Sen. Aisha Wahab an 88% implied probability of victory in the CA-14 special general election on August 18, reflecting her frontrunner position in the Democratic-leaning Bay Area district vacated by Rep. Eric Swalwell's recent resignation. Democratic leaders' efforts to clear the nonpartisan primary field on June 16, coupled with recent endorsements from the East Bay Times (May 7) and Indivisible East Bay (April 15), have boosted her momentum over challengers like attorney Rakhi Israni Singh, who led early fundraising but lacks comparable party consolidation. Other candidates trail due to lower name recognition and resources in this safe Democratic seat, though a primary upset remains possible before resolution.
