Bonus TL;DR
- Kalshi is launching “My Ballot” on Wednesday, a personalized elections portal within its midterm hub that uses customer address data collected during onboarding to display and allow trading on hyper-local, state, and federal races.
- The product expansion marks a push by Kalshi to move beyond headline national contests into down-ballot political event trading, though key operational details—such as state-by-state availability and specific local race coverage—remain to be seen upon launch.
Kalshi plans to launch My Ballot on Wednesday, a new personalized elections tool that will let customers view and trade on their local races.
The product is part of the company’s midterm elections hub and expands Kalshi’s election-market offering beyond broad national contests. According to the source report, the portal will cover federal, state, and local elections and tailor the experience using each customer’s address.
What My Ballot will do
Kalshi’s new tool is designed to show users the elections most relevant to where they live. The company already collects customer addresses during onboarding, and that information will be used to personalize the My Ballot portal.
That means users will be able to see and trade on races tied to their local ballot, not just headline national elections. The source report says the portal will include contests across multiple levels of government:
- Federal elections
- State elections
- Local elections
The report did not specify which individual local races will be included at launch or whether availability will vary by jurisdiction.
Why the launch matters
The update points to continued product expansion by Kalshi, which operates in the prediction market space and has built out election-related trading products in the U.S.
A personalized ballot-based interface could make those markets easier to navigate for users who want to follow races in their own communities rather than search manually across broader election listings. It also shows Kalshi pushing further into localized political-event trading as part of its broader elections hub.
At the same time, several details remain unclear from the initial report. The source did not outline what trading restrictions may apply within the new portal, whether all users will get access immediately, or how ballot information will be displayed once the tool goes live.
What to watch next
The key near-term date is Wednesday, when Kalshi says My Ballot is scheduled to launch.
Once the tool is live, the main questions will be how broad its local-election coverage is, whether any state-level access limits apply, and how Kalshi structures the trading experience around personalized voter information. Those details will help determine how significant the product is for users looking to trade on down-ballot races as well as major federal contests.
