The Gangwon Province gubernatorial election is scheduled to take place in South Korea on June 3, 2026 to elect the next governor of Gangwon Province. This market will resolve according to the candidate that wins this election. If the result of this election isn't known by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other". This market will resolve based on the result of the election as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the South Korean government, specifically the National Election Commission (https://www.nec.go.kr/).Woo Sang-ho of the Democratic Party secured a projected victory in the June 3, 2026 Gangwon gubernatorial election after exit polls and early vote counts showed him ahead of incumbent Kim Jin-tae of the People Power Party by roughly three percentage points. With over 90 percent of ballots tallied, Woo maintained a lead exceeding 20,000 votes, prompting Kim's concession and reflecting a Democratic Party recapture of the office after four years. The outcome aligns with national trends favoring the ruling party in several provincial races and stems from Woo's emphasis on leveraging central government connections for regional development. While final certification remains pending, the scale of the lead and historical patterns of late shifts in South Korean local elections make significant reversals unlikely.
