Kansas voters are scheduled to vote in the August 4, 2026 midterm elections on a measure which, if passed, would create partisan elections and six-year terms for supreme court justices.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Kansas Elections for Supreme Court Justices Amendment passes. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No."

If the election is officially rescheduled to a date prior to December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, the same rules apply to the new ballot and its corresponding deadlines. This market will resolve to "no" if no qualifying referendum vote is passed by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or if the referendum is rescheduled to be held later than that date, or otherwise cancelled.

If, for any reason, the results of this vote are not known by December 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "No."

This market will resolve based on the results of the vote according to a consensus of credible reporting. In case of ambiguity, this market will resolve solely based on official results reported by the state of Kansas, specifically the Kansas Secretary of State (https://sos.ks.gov/).
