The rules, in plain English
If the Democratic party has between 210 and 213 House seats on February 1, 2027, then the market resolves to Yes.
What the rules leave open

closest the rules come: “If the value of <above/below/at least/between> is "between", then <seats> shall be a pair of numbers, and an Expiration Value that is greater than or equal to the lower value of the pair and less than or equal to the greater value of the pair are encompassed in the Payout Criterion.” · contract terms ↗
