Resolution criteria
This market will resolve to YES if, at any point before the polls close in Michigan for the U.S. midterm general election (8:00 PM EST on November 3, 2026), Dr. Abdul El-Sayed or his official campaign issues an explicit public statement that condemns, disavows, or formally distances his campaign from Twitch streamer Hasan Piker.
For a YES resolution, the statement must meet the following criteria:
Must be before the polls close in Michigan for the U.S. midterm general election (8:00 PM EST on November 3, 2026)
Must be published by a credible news organization, via an official campaign press release, or through El-Sayed’s official verified social media channels.
Must feature El-Sayed (or his campaign) explicitly condemning, or disavowing Piker, or explicitly stating regret or an apology for holding joint campaign events with him.
1,000The last sentence of the description is a bit confusing. It mentions disavowing Piker's comments which is much different and a weaker standard than condemning/disavowing/distancing from Piker himself. If he says something like "I condemn what he said about 9/11" but doesn't disavow or distance himself generally, does that count as a YES?
