Mitch McConnell steps down from Senate before his term ends?

Traders currently price "No" at 77% for "Mitch McConnell steps down from Senate before his term ends?". The market has traded $1.1M in total volume and resolves Jan 3, 2027. Mitch McConnell announced in February 2025 that he would not seek reelection and planned to complete his term ending January 2027, establishing a clear timeline for departure through regular Senate service rather than early exit. Recent health-related absences since mid-June 2026 have prompted some calls for resignation from Kentucky Democrats, yet McConnell has indicated continued intent to serve out the remainder of his tenure. Trader consensus at 76.5% against an early departure reflects this stated commitment, historical patterns of senators finishing terms despite health challenges, and the absence of any official signals or procedural moves toward resignation before the scheduled end date.
