Wisconsin election officials are warning voters that betting on election outcomes via prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket could violate a 1849 law—potentially leading to felony charges. The state’s Elections Commission argues the law covers these platforms, even though they’re modern tech, urging Wisconsinites to avoid election bets if they plan to vote. Prediction market companies fiercely dispute this, calling the warning voter suppression and claiming their platforms aren’t actual wagers. The Wisconsin Attorney General has also joined the fray, suing firms for enabling illegal sports betting under their contracts. With hundreds of thousands of users at risk, the debate pits outdated legislation against new technology, raising bigger questions about whether these markets reflect public opinion—or just another form of gambling.
