This market resolves to "YES" if Beto O'Rourke is the governor of Texas on midnight of Feb 1st, 2023. Close date updated to 2022-11-07 11:59 pm Mar 10, 9:57am: I updated the close date so it's the day before election day. I will still wait until Feb 1st, 2023 to resolve the market to give time for possible litigation, etc. The next governor is nominally sworn in on Jan 20th, 2023. Jun 1, 1:37pm: after some thought, with the CPMM markets it doesn't really make sense to close this question early. Won't hurt anyone who correctly predicts before the election if someone buys the probability to certainty after the election. New close date is same as resolve date.
