This market will resolve to "Yes" if an Iranian presidential election is officially held by December 31, 2026. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. This market will resolve immediately upon the official confirmation that voting in the presidential election has taken place. Any announcement of an election date will not be sufficient for a positive resolution. Allegations, criticisms, or disputes regarding the fairness, legitimacy, or conduct of the election, as well as any protests, annulments, investigations, or other subsequent events occurring after voting has taken place, will not be considered in determining this market’s resolution. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the government of Iran; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.This market will resolve to "Yes" if an Iranian presidential election is officially held by June 30, 2026.

The February 2026 assassination of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and subsequent March election of Mojtaba Khamenei by the Assembly of Experts introduced major institutional flux, yet no official statements or procedural moves have emerged to advance a presidential vote. Trader positioning on an early election by any near-term cutoff reflects the limited historical precedent for snap presidential contests outside of a president's death or resignation, alongside the Guardian Council's ongoing role in candidate vetting and the supreme leader's dominant influence over timing. Any shift would likely hinge on acute political or security pressures within the current resolution window.
