This market will resolve according to the winner of the Republican Primary for United States Senator from Texas. If no 2026 Texas Republican Senate Primary takes place, this market will resolve to "Other". The resolution source for this market will be the first announcement of the results from the Texas Republican party, however an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting may suffice. In the Texas Republican U.S. Senate primary runoff set for May 26, 2026, traders favor Attorney General Ken Paxton at 58% implied probability over incumbent Sen. John Cornyn's 42.5%, reflecting recent polls like Texas Public Opinion Research (April 6-7) showing Paxton ahead 48-40% among likely voters. The March 3 primary forced the contest after neither cleared 50%, with Cornyn at 43% and Paxton at 41%, exposing base divisions between Cornyn's establishment backing—bolstered by $8 million cash-on-hand—and Paxton's populist appeal. Mixed surveys, including Cornyn's slim edges in Coefficient and Peak polls, underscore volatility ahead of early voting, with general election risks against Democrat James Talarico factoring into trader caution on electability.
