The 2026 United Left primary is currently scheduled to be held on October 11, 2026, to select a joint candidate for the 2027 French presidential election among participating left-wing parties and movements. This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins the nomination as a joint candidate of the participating left-wing parties and movements as a result of this election. This market will resolve to “Canceled” if the organizers of the 2026 United Left primary officially announce that it will not take place, or if at least three of L’Après, Les Écologistes, Debout!, and Génération.s officially announce that they will not participate. A postponement of the scheduled date will not qualify. If no qualifying nominee is announced by March 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting. In the case of ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on official announcements from the primary organizers or participating parties. Any replacement of the nominee before election day will not change the resolution of the market.

I saw that. Useless tweet for us because she is simply criticising the primary that replaced the one she was supposed to organise. I get what you are saying. It's clearly not ideal. But "a consensus of credible reporting" is used in rules when "flexibility is needed" and to "serve as a backup resolution source when the primary source is unavailable or insufficient" (cf: polymarketguide). An event that didn't factually happen and got reported as cancelled in the media is not an ambiguous situation. It should easily clear the bar for a resolution here. I will definitely try to push for a resolution past October 11th. And hopefully, we get a proper statement from Lucet Castets even before that.

Lucie Castets (organizer) tweeted yesterday, and of course she didn’t confirm the official cancellation of this primary. On her X account, there is still a link to FrontPopu2027, the account of the primary. It remains to be seen if no official confirmation from any organizer of the primary will be enough for this to resolve to Canceled, given that the rules are crystal clear.

DontTrustMe Sep 7
Once a fact has been established, later developments and reversals are irrelevant. And I believe that the cancellation has already been reported in the French media. The absence of communication from the organizers does indeed create a tiny little room to argue but it doesn't invalidate the fact. In any case, in about one month, the date on which it was supposed to be held will be past. No postponement will be announced by then. And news articles covering the matter have already been published. We will have everything to resolve this market without any ambiguity.

Supports negative risk (convert No shares to Yes of the other options)
ZorroH2 Sep 7
There is no official declaration of the organizers stating that the primary has been canceled, because every party wants to keep the door open, for example in case Olivier Faure wins the PS primary or other unexpected things happen. Hence, the mention in the rules: "In case of ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on official announcements from the primary organizers or participating parties." There is an "Other" option, but you cannot trade it. Buy 5 "No" on "Canceled". On your position, click on "Convert". You will get 5 shares of every tradable option + the "Other" option. You can try it right now. It is also written in the tooltip next to the market volume: "Complete negative risk (users who convert will receive Yes shares in any outcomes added in the future)."

DontTrustMe Sep 7
There is indisputably a consensus of credible sources to back up the fact that this primary has been cancelled. And various quotes from representatives of the involved parties to further back it up. But of course, a public statement from Lucie Castets would be even more clear-cut. Also, there is no "Other" option.
ZorroH2 Sep 7
No. The conditions for this to resolve to "Canceled" are precisely worded and not met yet. No party has released an official statement. Lucie Castets hasn't said anything. The website is still up. And this may not change until march 2027. If no qualifying nominee is announced by March 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other".

DontTrustMe Sep 7
In all honesty, based on a "consensus of credible reporting", there are probably enough grounds to resolve it already...

DontTrustMe Sep 7
This market is de facto over. Not sure what the trading activity of today is about. We are just waiting a qualifying statement from Lucie Castets. Or the website frontpopulaire2027 to be updated or shut down. Or something similar...

"Les adhérent du Parti socialiste ont hier soir décidé d’enterrer la primaire." Marine Tondelier

DontTrustMe Jul 10
M'ok, les opposants internes à Faure ont gagné 55% à 45%. Il devient difficile désormais d'imaginer le PS participer à cette primaire unitaire de la gauche, et donc par la même occasion, la tenue de cette dernière.

DontTrustMe Jul 6
Mais la proposition n°2 défendue par les anti-primaires est également... une primaire. Et Vallaud et Meyer-Rossignol ont déjà affiché leur proximité / bonne entente avec Glucksmann, qui lui est strictement anti-primaire à l'heure actuelle et qui en plus, n'a jamais été encarté au PS. Je n'ai pas l'impression que l'opposition à Faure ait réussi à proposer un chemin alternatif qui puisse véritablement séduire le militant socialiste de base. L'alternative à Faure me semble peu clair et potentiellement associé au scénario d'un effacement du Parti Socialiste derrière Place Publique.

DontTrustMe Jul 5
Cela étant dit, il s'est développé une forme de psychose autour des primaires ouvertes en France, donc la proposition n°2 va nécessairement convaincre un certain nombre de militants PS. Si elle devait gagner, ça signerait évidemment la mort de la primaire unitaire. Réponse le 9 juillet.

DontTrustMe Jul 5
Situation encore très difficile à lire pour le moment. Il me semblerait logique que la proposition n°1 défendue par Olivier Faure et soumise au vote des militants du Parti Socialiste l'emporte (car plus clair et s'inscrivant davantage dans une logique d'union de la gauche). Par conséquence, l'organisation d'une seconde primaire unitaire de la gauche continuerait d'être la position officielle du PS. Sans garantie absolue qu'elle ait vraiment lieu néanmoins...

le résultat "other" est il équivalent à "canceled" ?

Le problème c est que sans primaire, la gauche hors melenchon na pas de rampe. Il y aura une primaire avec les looser de gauche et ruffin gagnera car c est le seul consensuel

Glucksmann se fait massacrer a son premier debat, primaire de la gauche qui va diviser encore plus les voix, Edouard Phillipe sous enquete pour favoritisme. Les planetes s'alignent pour Melenchon.

C'était le premier drapeau tricolore, rouge blanc bleu, celui de 1790 à 1794. Aucune idée de pourquoi ils l'ont mis par contre mdr.

Alors, certes mais là c'est fait exprès 😅

Faure n'y a pas renoncé puisqu'il s'est affiché avec tous les pro-primaires / candidats ce mardi. Je ne suis pas un expert du microcosme socialiste, mais tant qu'il n'y aura pas de candidat au centre gauche un peu consensuel et bénéficiant d'une avance dans les sondages, j'imagine que l'idée de la primaire va continuer d'être défendue.

Poivre May 7
Faure a renoncé la semaine dernière. Il s'est mis tout le monde à dos. Pour valider une participation à la primaire il faut le vote des 2/3 du secrétariat national, ce qu'il aura jamais, donc il a arrêté d'essayer quand Vallaud a commencé à lui mettre la pression.

SwitchMario2019 May 7
Par contre, on peut savoir pourquoi le drapeau de la France est à l'envers sur l'icône ??? 🤣

If no qualifying nominee is announced by March 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". L'option est prévue, on peut juste pas l'acheter (enfin, c'est toujours possible en achetant des No sur les 4 proposés et en jouant avec les conversions en Yes et les merges)

DontTrustMe May 6
Faure pousse vraiment pour cela dit. La participation du PS est cruciale afin qu'elle puisse avoir lieu.

Il faut ajouter une option "la primaire n'a pas lieu" vu le bide que ça promet

Lydie Massart seems really underpriced here. Strong chance that she eats the other three and wins. 🧐
