This market resolves YES if Maryland Question 2 (Temporary Appointments on the Commission on Judicial Disabilities) is approved by voters at the November 3, 2026 general election under its official approval rule:

Majority of votes cast on the question (Md. Const. art. XIV, sec. 1)

Only the November 3, 2026 vote counts; earlier votes on similar proposals do not. YES means voter approval at this election, not that the measure is later implemented.

What the votes mean (official summary):

• YES: Temporary appointments allowed: the Commission Chair may recall a former member, or the Governor (at the Chair's request) may appoint a substitute or extend a member's term until a replacement is appointed.

• NO: Current membership rules stay the same; no temporary appointments when a member is recused, disqualified, or a term ends.

Results: resolves on the result certified by State Board of Canvassers certifies; Governor proclaims adopted amendments. It may resolve earlier once official returns or the Associated Press show the outcome cannot change and no recount is pending; if a recount or certified correction changes the outcome before resolution, the certified result controls.

No vote: if the measure is removed from the ballot, a court orders its votes not to be counted, or the vote is postponed beyond November 3, 2026, the market resolves N/A.

Later legal challenges: resolution follows voter approval as certified. A court later invalidating, enjoining or delaying the measure does not change the resolution.

Starting probability: 50% is a neutral starting seed, not a forecast.
