The Economist's Trump vs Biden polling average was updated today, March 21st, and shows that their average of the polls as of March 17th was Biden 45%, Trump 44%.

Will Trump retake the lead before the end of the month?

If the average for any day from March 18th-March 31st shows Trump ahead of Biden, this market resolves YES. If Biden remains ahead or tied for each of these days, this market resolves NO after the last day of March is added to the average.

Note that due to the delay, we should expect not to see the data for March 31st until a few days after that in April.

Well hmmm, the latest update seems to have retroactively changed the numbers! Nonetheless, I believe the criteria are fulfilled:

If the average for any day from March 18th-March 31st shows Trump ahead of Biden, this market resolves YES.

bought Ṁ1,000 YES

@Joshua Yeah, I don't really see any possible argument for NO

@PlasmaBallin alright the biggest no holder sold his position so I'm going to proceed with a yes resolution.

In the future I will be sure to include language about retroactive changes in the criteria for markets like this.
