This market will resolve to the number of senators who vote “Yea” on the first final U.S. Senate confirmation vote on the nomination of the next individual Donald Trump, as President of the United States, formally nominates to be Chair of the Federal Reserve by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Formal nominations are defined as the submission of a nomination message to the U.S. Senate. Acting or interim appointments will not count unless the individual is formally nominated to be Chair of the Federal Reserve by submission of a nomination message to the U.S. Senate. The vote count refers to the first final confirmation vote on the nomination in the full chamber, not including committee votes or procedural motions. If the nomination passes unanimously or without a specified vote count, this market will resolve to the highest bracket. If the nomination is rejected by vote without a specified vote count, this market will resolve to the lowest bracket. If no qualifying vote is held by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to “No vote by December 31/Withdrawn”. If a formally submitted nomination is withdrawn or returned to the President before reaching a final confirmation vote, this market will resolve immediately to “No vote by December 31/Withdrawn”. Votes cast by the Vice President, if any, will not be considered for this market. The resolution sources will be official Senate voting records and a consensus of credible reporting.The Senate Banking Committee's narrow 13-11 party-line vote on April 29 to advance Kevin Warsh's nomination as Federal Reserve chair has kept confirmation hopes alive amid trader consensus pricing a tight race between no floor vote or withdrawal by December 31 (32%), bare-majority passage at 51 yes votes (30%), or failure at ≤49 (28%). With Republicans holding a slim 53-47 Senate edge, recent signals like Sen. Fetterman's crossover yes bolster a path to 51, but earlier GOP waverers like Sen. Tillis and Democratic opposition led by Sen. Warren highlight defection risks and potential filibuster delays before Jerome Powell's May 15 term end. A full Senate floor vote, whip counts, and leadership scheduling could soon tip the balance on exact vote tally.
