The market clearly defines winning the next French presidential election, accounting for both a first-round victory and a runoff, as well as the possibility of a snap election held before 2027. Resolution relies on a consensus of credible reporting, backed up by the French Ministry of the Interior if any ambiguity arises. Participants should note that the rules include a fallback clause stating the market will resolve to 'Other' if results are delayed past December 31, 2027, which appears adapted from a multi-candidate market structure.

Resolution rules
The next French presidential election is currently expected to be held around April 2027. This market pertains to the outcome of the next French presidential election, regardless of whether it follows the scheduled end of the current term or is held earlier. The President of France is elected via a two-round system; a candidate must secure over 50% of the vote to win outright in the first round. If no candidate achieves this, the top two contenders advance to a runoff. This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins this election. This market includes any potential second round. If, for any reason, the results of the election are not known by December 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". This market will resolve based on the result of the election as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the French Government, specifically the Ministry of the Interior (https://www.interieur.gouv.fr/).
