This market will resolve to "Yes" if the first Speaker of the House of the 118th US Congress is elected by January 4, 2023, 11:59:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".

An individual being elected, appointed, deemed to be acting as, and/or sworn in as Speaker Pro Tempore will not trigger a "Yes" resolution to this market. Only the successful election of the first Speaker of the House for the 118th US Congress will result in this market's resolving to "Yes". 

This market may resolve to "Yes" as soon as a Speaker of the House is successfully elected. Otherwise, this market may not resolve until its expiration time passes.

The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the Government of the United States of America, however a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
