"Ingesting AP's live vote data in addition to the native forecasts will provide Kalshi users with a new and improved way to engage with American democracy and the electoral process. David Scott, vice president for AP Elections said working with Kalshi will expand the reach of AP's trusted elections data, meeting audiences where they are with reliable information about who voters have chosen to lead their country and communities."
"Kalshi has been credited with creating and establishing the predictions market category as a financial asset class, and has become a top destination to track election results, receiving over 500 million site visits during the 2024 presidential election."
"On Election night at Mar-a-Lago, while biased outlets called the race a coin toss, my family and close friends used the prediction market Kalshi to know we won hours ahead of the fake news media. I immediately knew I had to contribute to their mission."
The Associated Press announced a partnership with Kalshi, a prediction market platform, to make U.S. election results available for betting on outcomes like the 2026 midterms. AP will supply Kalshi with vote count data and race calls for national and major state elections. Kalshi, credited with establishing the prediction market category as a financial asset class, received over 500 million site visits during the 2024 presidential election. The partnership aims to provide Kalshi users with reliable, real-time election information. AP Vice President David Scott stated the collaboration expands AP's election data reach to audiences seeking trustworthy information. AP also provides election results to major news networks including ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, and FOX News Media, plus CNBC and MS NOW.
