Summary
Kalshi on Tuesday rolled out a Midterms Hub that combines live election odds with polling averages, fundraising data, historical results and political news for House, Senate and gubernatorial races.
The company is pitching the dashboard as a real-time alternative to snapshot polling, saying traders react continuously to debates, endorsements, fundraising and breaking news as campaigns shift.
About 75% of Kalshi visitors now use the platform to monitor forecasts rather than trade, the company said, underscoring its push to become an information destination beyond wagering.
Kalshi said candidates favored by its markets have won about 90% of races since 2024 even three months before Election Day, while stressing its federally regulated exchange monitors for manipulation and insider-trading risks.
The launch expands Kalshi's political footprint ahead of 2026 midterms that will decide control of Congress and shape President Donald Trump's final two years in office.
