Andy Burnham's candidacy for Labour in the June 18 Makerfield by-election, triggered by Josh Simons' resignation, underpins the market's view of a Labour victory, with his personal profile providing a boost in a Greater Manchester seat where Reform UK made strong local election gains. A late-May Survation poll showed Burnham leading Reform's Robert Kenyon by three points amid a split right-wing vote that includes Restore Britain's candidate. Traders assign the highest probability to a Burnham win by nine points or more, reflecting his established local support and the compressed campaign dynamics, while narrower margins and a potential Kenyon upset remain competitive possibilities given the seat's marginal status and national polling trends favoring Reform in similar areas.

This market will resolve according to the margin of victory between the top two candidates in the specified election.
For the purpose of this market, the “margin of victory” is defined as the absolute difference between the percentages of valid votes received by the first-place and second-place candidates. Percentages of the valid votes received by each candidate will be determined by dividing the total number of valid votes each of the top two candidates receives by the sum of all valid votes cast in the election.
If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher placed bracket.
If two or more candidates tie for the most valid votes in this election, and the tie is between two candidates listed, this market will resolve to the lowest margin bracket for the candidate whose listed last name comes first in alphabetical order. If the tie is between a listed candidate and an unlisted candidate, this market will resolve to the lowest margin bracket for the listed candidate. If the tie is between two or more unlisted candidates, this market will resolve to “Other.”
This market will resolve based on the official vote count once the count has been made official.
If the election results are not known definitively 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 credible reporting. In case of ambiguity, this market will resolve solely based on official election results as published by Wigan Council (https://www.wigan.gov.uk/).
If a recount is initiated before the vote total has been made official, the market will remain open until the recount is completed and the vote is made official.
