Frequently asked questions

Prediction market odds on Kalshi often diverge from traditional polling because traders incorporate real-time information, campaign momentum, and insider knowledge that polls may lag. While polls provide snapshots of voter preference at specific moments, prediction markets reflect continuous reassessment by participants with financial stakes in the outcome. For IA-02, comparing market-implied probabilities to recent Democratic primary polls and analyst ratings can reveal whether traders are pricing in factors polls haven't yet captured.

Key catalysts for IA-02 Democratic nominee odds include endorsements from party leaders and local officials, campaign funding announcements, debate performance, primary election results from neighboring states, and shifts in voter sentiment captured by new polls. Candidate withdrawals or entries, media coverage of scandals or achievements, and grassroots organizing momentum can all trigger sharp repricing. Major national political events and changes in the broader Democratic primary landscape may also influence trader expectations for this district's nomination outcome.
