This market will resolve according to the first individual to be formally nominated by the Democratic Party for Vice President of the United States in the 2028 Presidential election cycle who accepts the nomination. The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of official Democratic Party sources, including https://democrats.org/. Any replacement of the nominee before election day will not change the resolution of the market.Trader consensus on the Democratic VP nominee for 2028 shows an exceptionally tight race, with Josh Shapiro at 41%, Roy Cooper and Ruben Gallego at 38%, and several others clustered around 37.5%, reflecting early speculation in a wide-open field absent a clear frontrunner. Shapiro's slight edge stems from his April 9 appearance at Rev. Al Sharpton's National Action Network convention, where he teased joining the 2028 presidential conversation, boosting his national profile as Pennsylvania's swing-state governor. Cooper's North Carolina executive experience and Gallego's Arizona Senate freshman momentum keep them competitive, alongside governors like Tim Walz and Jared Polis valued for battleground appeal and moderate credentials. The pack remains bunched amid post-2024 regrouping, with 2026 midterms poised to elevate standout performers through key primaries, House races, and Senate battlegrounds that could sharpen paths to the convention ticket.
