How the California Governor market works on Polymarket

Most Polymarket political markets for offices are binary: each share pays $1 if the outcome resolves YES and $0 if NO. Prices float between $0.00 and $1.00 in pUSD, and the CLOB enforces matching via limit and FAK market orders. The market’s fair price equals the probability-implied price; for binaries, YES + NO should sum to $1.00 at fair value. Watch tick-size changes near extremes and UMA resolution windows — both can affect execution and settlement timing.

Where intra-market arbitrage appears

Intra-market arbitrage arises when liquidity fragmentation or stale orders let Σ bestAsk(outcomes) fall below $1.00. For a binary like California Governor, that reduces to bestAsk(YES) + bestAsk(NO) < $1.00. Buying both legs mints a complete set through CTF split and locks a mathematical edge. Remember this edge is conditional: resolution disputes (UMA), partial fills, slippage, fees, and settlement timing all create practical risk.

Practical checks before you trade

Always verify fees and category restrictions on the market; maker fees are zero but taker fees vary by category. Check geo restrictions — US web users and several countries face limits on new orders — and never attempt VPN bypass. Monitor order-book depth to avoid large slippage, and account for UMA resolution disputes which can delay redeeming winning tokens.
