Prediction market odds on Kalshi often diverge from traditional polling because traders incorporate real-time campaign developments, fundraising data, and insider information that polls may lag. While polls capture voter preference at a single moment, prediction markets continuously update as new information emerges.

Direct comparison requires checking current poll averages alongside live market odds.
