This market establishes clear resolution criteria: any public declaration by Ted Cruz stating he is running for president in the 2028 election before the end of 2026 resolves the market positively, without requiring formal ballot or FEC filings. The primary determination relies on direct public statements from Cruz himself, though secondary resolution allows for a consensus of credible reporting if necessary, introducing modest evaluator discretion. The deadline is explicitly fixed to December 31, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET.
