This market will resolve to the number of senators who vote “Yea” on the first final U.S. Senate confirmation vote on the nomination of the next individual Donald Trump, as President of the United States, formally nominates to be Chair of the Federal Reserve by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Formal nominations are defined as the submission of a nomination message to the U.S. Senate. Acting or interim appointments will not count unless the individual is formally nominated to be Chair of the Federal Reserve by submission of a nomination message to the U.S. Senate. The vote count refers to the first final confirmation vote on the nomination in the full chamber, not including committee votes or procedural motions. If the nomination passes unanimously or without a specified vote count, this market will resolve to the highest bracket. If the nomination is rejected by vote without a specified vote count, this market will resolve to the lowest bracket. If no qualifying vote is held by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to “No vote by December 31/Withdrawn”. If a formally submitted nomination is withdrawn or returned to the President before reaching a final confirmation vote, this market will resolve immediately to “No vote by December 31/Withdrawn”. Votes cast by the Vice President, if any, will not be considered for this market. The resolution sources will be official Senate voting records and a consensus of credible reporting.The Senate Banking Committee's abrupt delay of Kevin Warsh's confirmation hearing—originally eyed for mid-April—announced days ago amid Sen. Thom Tillis's ongoing hold over a DOJ probe into Jerome Powell's tenure, has intensified timeline pressures ahead of Powell's May 15 term expiration. Republicans' 53-47 Senate majority underpins trader consensus for simple-majority confirmation, with 60+ yes votes leading at 41% on expectations of resolved holds yielding strong GOP unity and potential moderate Democrat crossovers, as Warsh garners praise as a former Fed governor. Outcomes near 51-55 (20-24%) reflect risks of Tillis defection or limited attendance yielding narrow passage, while no-vote odds remain low at under 6%. Floor vote whip counts and probe closure will drive shifts.
