The rules, in plain English
Legislative elections are expected in Israel on October 27, 2026. This market resolves based on what percentage of the national vote Amcha Yisrael wins in the Israeli Knesset elections. The percentage is calculated as valid votes for Amcha Yisrael divided by total valid votes cast. Votes count whether or not Amcha Yisrael passes the threshold to win seats. If Amcha Yisrael runs as part of a joint list with other parties, all votes for that joint list count. If Amcha Yisrael merges with another party before the election, all votes for the merged party or any joint list it runs on count. If the percentage falls exactly on a bracket boundary, the market resolves to the higher bracket. If results are not definitively known by October 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market resolves to the lowest bracket. The market resolves based on election results from a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, it resolves based solely on official results from the Central Elections Committee of Israel.
