WASHINGTON (TNND) — Kalshi prediction markets are stating that Democrats have a 100% chance of taking the House. This prediction comes shortly after the polls closed on Election Day.
NBC News predicted that Democrats will win control of the House and will wind up with a 53-seat majority.
It is also predicting that the Democrats will also take the Senate, Kalshi predicts that Democrats will get 90 or more seats.
Former Democratic North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper defeated his GOP opponent Michael Whatley for the Senate. He will succeed current GOP Sen. Thom Tillis.
Democratic Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff won reelection, but the governor’s seat flipped from red to blue.
Polls from The New York Times and Siena University projected a Democratic sweep of toss-up races that could determine which party will control the Senate.
“We were sort of in an ambiguous place where it wasn’t quite clear whether pollsters and modelers should ‘own’ the fact that they were projecting a big night for Democrats—and own the risk of another embarrassing systematic polling error,” political analyst Nate Silver said in a blog post. “The NYT/Siena polls resolve that, in my opinion, in Democrats’ favor, for better or worse. Polls show that Democrats will win the Senate, perhaps soundly.”
