A special election is scheduled for August 18, 2026 to fill the seat of California’s 14th Congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives. This market will resolve according to the winner of this election. This market includes any potential runoff election or second round. If the results of this election are not definitively known by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to “Other”. The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of official sources, including: https://www.sos.ca.gov/.Aisha Wahab maintains a strong lead in trader consensus for the August 18, 2026, CA-14 special election runoff because she topped the June special primary with roughly 38-43% of the vote, well ahead of Melissa Hernandez at 17%. As a sitting state senator with broader name recognition in the East Bay Democratic stronghold, Wahab benefits from established voter networks and fundraising advantages heading into the final days. Hernandez, a BART board member and former Dublin mayor, has gained ground through targeted appeals on public safety and local infrastructure, supported by significant outside spending on both sides. The race remains confined to these two candidates after the primary advanced only Democrats to the runoff, with minor candidates polling at negligible levels. The short timeline to election day limits opportunities for major shifts in the current positioning.
