Resolution criteria
This market resolves to YES if U.S. Representative Max Miller officially withdraws from his 2026 reelection campaign for Ohio's 7th Congressional District on or before the official state-mandated deadline of August 10, 2026 (86 days prior to the general election).
This market resolves to NO if he remains in the race past the August 10, 2026 deadline.
The outcome will be determined using reports from the Ohio Secretary of State or major credible news outlets (e.g., AP News or CNN).
Background
U.S. Representative Max Miller (R-OH) is facing significant bipartisan and internal party pressure to exit his campaign for Ohio's 7th Congressional District following domestic abuse allegations raised by his ex-wife, Emily Moreno (daughter of Ohio U.S. Senator Bernie Moreno). Miller has strongly denied the allegations and recently pledged to self-fund his campaign with $1 million.
Under Ohio state election guidelines, August 10, 2026, is the final deadline for a candidate to withdraw from the ballot and allow local county party leaders to select a replacement nominee. If Miller does not withdraw by this date, his name will legally remain on the ballot for the November 3, 2026 general election.
