Just letting everyone know I’m reading a book right now. I also drank 7 glasses of water yesterday. Im not saying explicitly that I’m a better person than you, but it is heavily heavily implied. Heaven is going to be awesome!

Over $21 million in Kalshi trades were made on the Thomas Massie/Ed Gallrein race.

That includes a nearly $23,000 bet against Gallrein made AFTER the polls had already closed.

Prediction markets like Kalshi favored Thomas Massie over Ed Gallrein for months in the KY-04 race, even after Trump endorsed and campaigned for Massie.

On May 17, the market flipped.

Last week, I wrote about how Kentucky campaigns see prediction markets. Story below:
