This market asks whether Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will officially announce a 2028 presidential run or file FEC presidential paperwork. The research digest confirms she has NOT filed for president — her most recent FEC Form 2 (November 2024) lists House of Representatives only. Multiple sources confirm she remains genuinely undecided, considering both presidential and Senate options. The external market anchor is 8% for announcement before 2027 (vol=$39,423), which is a narrower window than this market's resolution (anytime before 2028 election certification). The current quote of 13 is slightly above the external anchor, which is reasonable given the longer resolution window. No new developments since the last tick — no FEC filing, no announcement, no change in her publicly stated position of indecision.
