What the contract measures

The Polymarket event asks who will be the next Chair of the Regional Board of Region Gävleborg. The rules say the market "will resolve to the next individual who officially assumes the office of Chair of the Regional Board of Region Gävleborg following the 2026 Swedish regional elections" [1]. To count, the person "must be formally elected by the relevant regional council as Chair of the Regional Board," and "Any interim or caretaker Chair will not count toward the resolution of this market" [1].

The rules also state that if "no such Chair takes office by March 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to 'Other'" [1]. The election date of September 13, 2026 appears in the background text as a scheduled date [1]. It is not evidence that the election has taken place.

Reading the snapshot

The snapshot was observed at 2026-10-15T21:00:05.939Z and retrieved at 2026-10-15T21:57:52.137Z [1]. These are times for this saved record only. They do not show current prices.

Seven individual contracts are saved for this event, and all seven are included. Each has a Yes and No price:

• Eva Lindberg: Yes 0.9075, No 0.0925.
• Patrik Stenvard: Yes 0.0155, No 0.9845.
• Anna Sundberg, Frida Stål, Alexander Hägg, Jennie Forsblom, and Henrik Olofsson: Yes 0.0005 each, No 0.9995 each.

These are snapshot prices, not executable quotes or verified probabilities. The Yes prices across the seven contracts sum to 0.9255. The "Other" outcome described in the rules is not among the saved contracts, so its price is not available here. The Yes prices for different people are separate contracts and should not be read as a single ranked field.

Volume data was not supplied, so this snapshot says nothing about liquidity or the number of traders.

What remains uncertain

The listed end time is 2026-09-14T03:59:00.000Z, which is earlier than the observation time. The status is recorded as active. The evidence does not explain this difference, and the rules separately reference a March 31, 2027 deadline. Readers should check the provider's current page before relying on the listed end time.

The sample covers only Polymarket. No other platform is included, so no cross-platform comparison is possible. The sample warning notes that the saved markets do not establish that the provider lists every possible real-world outcome.
