North Carolina Democratic Representative Don Davis filed a bill prohibiting federal candidates, along with their spouses, children and campaign committees, from betting on their own elections. Republican Laurie Buckhout was suspended for three years by the platform Kalshi for betting less than 1,000 dollars on her own race, with a penalty of 2,589.96 dollars. The proposed sanction reaches 10,000 dollars per violation, or three times the net gain if that amount is higher. In France, David Lisnard’s contract on Polymarket rose from 3 % to 13.3 % between September and October, illustrating growing interest in these markets. Polymarket and Kalshi have exceeded 150 billion dollars in total volume.
