This should habe been resolved long ago. You may have misunderstood the blogpost. The prediction was about the Berlin senate elections on 12/02/2023 and Berlins former Red-Red-Green coalition has not been reelected. Kai Wegener (CDU) is the new major of Berlin and he's in a coalition with the SPD.

There has never been a Red-Red-Green federal government in Germany, so it can't be reelected.

@MaxTroet Theoretically, this could resolve YES if Yglesias resolves it incorrectly. 😉

@marketwise Okay, but the resolution "is clear", so we don't have to wait for him to make a mistake. 😂

predicted NO

@MaxTroet Yes, just fishing for someone to waste some Mana. 😁

@itsTomekK I agree this can be resolved.

predicted YES

@marketwise Thank you, sorry i don't see comments sometimes.

Does this resolve on Matt's judgment or yours? (not that I expect that to make a difference, but usually these sorts of markets are tied to the original source resolution)

predicted YES

@AndrewHartman If the resolution is clear, then I just resolve it. If it's not, I'd prefer to wait for Matt. How is it here?
