Colombia's presidential election first round is scheduled for May 31, 2026, with two candidates advancing to a second round on June 21, 2026 if no candidate secures more than 50% of the valid votes in the first round. This market will resolve according to the listed pair of candidates that advance to the second round of the 2026 Colombian presidential election. If any candidate wins this election outright in the first round, this market will resolve to “1st Round Outright Winner”. If any candidate pair other than the listed pairs advances to the second round of the 2026 Colombian presidential election, this market will resolve to “Other”. If the results of the first round of the Colombian presidential 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 Colombia's National Civil Registry (Registraduría Nacional del Estado Civil) (https://registraduria.gov.co).Trader consensus favors Iván Cepeda Castro advancing from Colombia's May 31 first-round presidential election alongside Abelardo de la Espriella, reflecting polls showing Cepeda's stable lead at 35-44% amid fragmented opposition support. Recent tracking polls, including Fundación Génesis Crea's May 14 survey (Cepeda 35.1%, Paloma Valencia 25.4%, de la Espriella 21.6%) and Confidencial's data (Cepeda 38%, Valencia 23%, de la Espriella 22%), highlight de la Espriella's momentum in head-to-head runoffs against Cepeda (52-49% edges), boosting his second-place odds over Valencia despite her Democratic Center base. No candidate nears outright victory threshold, with right-wing vote consolidation key ahead of campaigning close. Markets imply 60% probability for this pairing, underscoring skin-in-the-game bets on de la Espriella's viability.
