About this event

This event tracks which candidate will finish in third place in the first round of the 2027 French presidential election. Each market measures whether a specific candidate wins the third-most valid votes in that round.

How the outcomes relate

Markets are structured with one proposition per candidate. Because resolution selects the single candidate who occupies the third-highest finishing position after vote ranking and tie-breaking, at most one market can resolve Yes.

How it resolves

A market resolves Yes if its specified candidate receives the third-most valid votes in the first round of the election. Candidates are ranked primarily by valid votes won, with ties broken by the alphabetical order of their listed full names. If the result is not definitively known by December 31, 2027, at 11:59 PM ET, the event resolves to Other. Resolution is determined by a consensus of credible reporting, or by official results from the French Ministry of the Interior if ambiguity exists.
