How this market settles

If the number of Republican Representatives voting Yea on the first House vote on adopting a resolution or article impeaching Pete Hegseth is at least 1 before Jan 3, 2027, then the market resolves to Yes. The vote that counts is the first recorded House vote on adopting a resolution or an article of impeachment against Pete Hegseth, whether or not the House adopts it. If the articles are voted on separately, the vote on the first article counts. Only Yea votes by Representatives listed as Republicans in the Clerk of the House's roll call for that vote count. Does NOT count: A vote on a motion to table, refer, postpone or otherwise dispose of an impeachment resolution, or on a special rule or the previous question A committee vote If there is no such vote before Jan 3, 2027, the number is zero.

What could still go wrong

  • The definition of 'Republican' relies on the Clerk of the House's party designation at the time of the vote, which could differ from other sources if a member switches parties close to the vote.
  • If multiple articles are voted on separately, only the first article's vote counts, but determining which article is 'first' could be ambiguous if votes occur simultaneously or in rapid succession.
  • The cutoff time of Jan 3, 2027 at 13:59:00Z may create timezone ambiguity for votes occurring near that boundary.
  • It is unclear whether a vote on a 'resolution' covers all impeachment-related resolutions or only those specifically adopting articles of impeachment, though the description does clarify exclusions.
