The Ulsan mayoral election is scheduled to take place on June 3, 2026. This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins this election. Interim, temporary, or caretaker mayors will not count. If the result of this election isn't known by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other". This market will resolve based on the result of the election 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 the South Korean government, specifically the National Election Commission (https://www.nec.go.kr/).The recent agreement between South Korea’s Democratic Party and Progressive Party to unify behind a single Ulsan mayoral candidate through a 100 percent public-opinion-poll primary between Kim Sang-wook and Kim Jong-hoon has consolidated liberal support ahead of the June 3 local elections. This development has narrowed the race to a three-way contest against incumbent People Power Party candidate Kim Doo-kyum and independent Park Maeng-woo, with pre-unification polling showing the combined liberal share slightly ahead of the conservative ticket in a traditionally industrial city. Traders assign Kim Sang-wook the highest probability as the likely primary winner, while Kim Doo-kyum’s name recognition as mayor and potential vote splitting on the right keep the outcome competitive. Upcoming campaign launch and turnout among shipbuilding and auto workers remain key variables that could shift the implied probabilities.
