DoubleZero adds Kalshi election market data ahead of US midterms

DoubleZero, a network for high-speed data distribution, has added real-time data from Kalshi’s election and politics markets as prediction market trading picks up ahead of the US midterm elections in November.
The expansion adds Kalshi’s election contracts to DoubleZero Edge, which already carries data from the prediction market’s sports contracts and crypto perpetual futures, according to a Wednesday announcement.
The feed includes top-of-book and trade data, along with aggregated order book data from Kalshi’s election markets. Andy Ross, head of institutional at Kalshi, said the integration is intended to make political market data easier to incorporate into institutional workflows as expectations shift around election outcomes.
According to data from the Anti-Corruption Data Collective, betting on the 2026 US midterms had reached $133 million as of Aug. 10, surpassing the $92.4 million wagered during the entire 2024 congressional election cycle.
At the time of writing, a Kalshi midterm market that asks which party will win the US House had recorded more than $35 million in trading volume, with Democratic victory odds at 84%.
