Here's the FULL transcript, from NYT, of everything that got said: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/08/us/politics/state-of-the-union-transcript-biden.html
Like, this is the post-event full transcript — as opposed to the scripted version of the prepared remarks, which TIME and others posted. (The way you can tell is that "Snickers" gets mentioned in the full version.)
So, you can use this to check — the answer was definitely "Q"
@PaulDwyer Actually, that's the PRE-PREPARED version of the script.

But the answer was definitely "Q".
@AlQuinn I'm betting on Z not being the least used just because of its prevalence in Russian/Ukrainian names.
For those who are interested, here are the other markets in this set:
(1) "Will EVERY letter be used at least TWICE?" - https://manifold.markets/JamesF/will-every-letter-in-the-alphabet-b
(2) "What'll the most-used LETTER be?" - https://manifold.markets/JamesF/what-letter-will-be-used-the-most-i
(3) "What will the most-used CONSONANT be?" - https://manifold.markets/JamesF/what-consonant-will-be-used-the-mos
(4) "What will the LEAST-used letter be?" - https://manifold.markets/JamesF/what-letter-will-be-used-the-least (Like, the "least-used" question is by FAR the most tricky and most exciting.)
@PaulDwyer Even if that occurs, it'd probably be fairly brief — like, brief enough for the race to still be a battle between Z + Q (+ maybe X), just as before.
