• Real-time order book data includes trades, top bids and asks, and complete market depth for political contracts
• More than $133 million in bets placed on 2026 midterm contests, surpassing all of 2024’s congressional betting

Kalshi’s political prediction market feeds are now streaming through DoubleZero’s high-speed data infrastructure, providing professional traders and automated platforms with instant access to election market dynamics before the November 2026 U.S. midterm contests.

Inside the Data Partnership

DoubleZero Edge, the data distribution service operating on the DoubleZero fiber infrastructure, has begun streaming Kalshi’s political contracts alongside its current offerings in sports betting and cryptocurrency perpetual futures. The data stream encompasses executed trades, top-of-book pricing, and complete order book depth organized by price tiers.

This integration goes beyond simple probability displays. Complete order book visibility reveals the actual liquidity supporting market prices and demonstrates how rapidly traders adjust their positions following major developments.

Austin Federa, who co-founded DoubleZero, outlined the strategic rationale. When significant events like political debates, judicial decisions, or unexpected news trigger market movements within seconds, outdated information becomes worthless immediately.

The integration seeks to transform political outcome probabilities into actionable, machine-readable intelligence that sophisticated trading operations and artificial intelligence platforms can utilize instantly.

Midterm Election Betting Reaches Record Levels

The upcoming November 3 midterm elections will determine congressional control during President Donald Trump’s final two years in office. Voters will decide 435 House races and 33 Senate contests nationwide.

The results will either enable Republicans to maintain momentum on Trump’s policy priorities or empower Democrats to obstruct legislation and spearhead oversight inquiries.

Wagering on midterm outcomes has experienced explosive growth. Through August 10, betting volumes exceeded $133 million across Kalshi, Polymarket, and Polymarket US for House and Senate races.

This figure has already eclipsed the $92.4 million wagered throughout the complete 2024 congressional election season, based on Anti-Corruption Data Collective research cited by Reuters.

Kalshi’s House control market individually has generated over $35 million in trading activity. Current market pricing assigns Democrats an 84% likelihood of securing House majority control.

DoubleZero operates as a worldwide fiber optic network engineered for high-performance decentralized applications. The system relies on independent fiber infrastructure providers and operates through blockchain-based coordination protocols. Its organizational headquarters are located in the Cayman Islands.

Kalshi functions as a federally regulated prediction market platform offering event-based contracts connected to political races, economic indicators, and various real-world developments.

Andy Ross, who leads institutional relationships at Kalshi, explained that this collaboration aims to simplify the integration of political market intelligence into professional trading systems as electoral forecasts evolve.

DoubleZero Edge currently delivers data feeds from Kalshi’s sports betting contracts and cryptocurrency perpetual futures products. Adding election market data represents the platform’s first expansion into political forecasting using identical technical infrastructure.

Betting volumes connected to the November midterm elections keep climbing as the voting date draws closer.
