According to CryptoSlate, a recent Ipsos poll shows that 69% of Democrats and 61% of Republicans oppose using prediction markets to bet on election outcomes, as well as on military actions and government policy decisions. The survey, conducted between September 30 and October 5 among 4,506 U.S. adults, suggests that the prediction market industry's defense of "providing better information" is insufficient to win public support. Furthermore, the Kalshi platform has previously fined and suspended congressional candidates for trading on their own campaigns, highlighting the potential risks of insider trading and election manipulation.
