This market will resolve to “Yes” if a constitutional referendum in Turkey is officially announced by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. Constitutional referendum refers to any nationwide vote in Turkey on whether to approve an amendment, or multiple amendments, to the Turkish Constitution. Officially announced refers to any announcement of a specific date for the referendum, or a definitive announcement that a referendum will be held (e.g. after a constitutional amendment has passed the parliament and been submitted to a referendum by the president). The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the government of Turkey; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.**Traders assign an 80% probability to “No” for a Turkish constitutional referendum announcement in 2026 because formal steps remain absent despite ongoing discussion.** As of late August 2026, presidential advisor Mehmet Uçum and other AKP figures have reiterated that any new constitution or major amendment requires a popular referendum—even with a 400-vote parliamentary majority—yet no draft text, timeline, or official call has been issued. Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş previously projected a possible new charter in 2026-2027, and the August passage of PKK reintegration legislation with 468 votes has raised speculation about potential cross-party support for constitutional changes that could affect term limits. However, the ruling alliance still lacks the consistent 360-seat threshold needed to trigger a referendum, opposition parties remain divided, and recent AKP internal drafting focuses on limited power adjustments rather than a full referendum process. With the next general elections scheduled for 2028 and no concrete procedural announcements or legislative calendar entries in the current session, the market reflects the gap between preliminary political signaling and the verifiable actions required to schedule a nationwide vote this year.
