Eagerly awaiting the first Kalshi leaderboard refresh
Need to see how my friends and enemies are doing
Always compare yourself to others, not to who you were yesterday
This is incredibly misleading. @50plus1news was planning to publish an investigation into Wedgewood's polls tomorrow morning, and reached out to them this morning for comment. This is just an attempt to save face after they realized we caught them.
It's interesting how little the early voting data seems to move the prediction markets. I've seen people on here say that the Texas voting has either been terrible or excellent for Talarico, yet the people with money on the line don't seem to ascribe any signal to it.

Easily the craziest ad I’ve seen this cycle.
I wonder if it’s even a net positive for Vivek. Have to imagine a decent number of people will be completely turned off by this.
BOMBSHELL: Amy Acton’s own MOTHER just dropped a devastating ad warning Ohio NOT to elect her daughter.
She calls Amy a habitual liar who “needs help” and is totally unfit for governor.
When your own mother begs voters to stay away, it’s OVER.
Must watch! 👇
We analyzed over 1 billion trades to find out why Kalshi markets are so accurate. A group of 15,000 superforecasters is largely responsible.
What stands out:
-There are 14,694 people on Kalshi who have significantly better predictive ability than other traders. This is measured by Brier skill score, which tracks trader calibration.
-They provide their forecasts to the whole platform, not just the top few markets. Skilled traders are active in 97.3% of markets.
-Timing and category change behavior: for example, superforecasters enter economic markets earlier, and sports markets later.
-These traders aren’t concentrated in the coasts or major cities. They come from all around the country, with Wyoming having the most per capita.
Prediction markets provide an incentive for smart people to do research, think rationally, and share their views with the world.
This incentive has brought almost 15,000 superforecasters to Kalshi, who create a public good by providing accurate forecasts to nearly every market on the platform.
