Kalshi Attacks Wisconsin Law Banning Election Bets as 'Voter Suppression' Wisconsin recently passed a law banning various forms of election bets, including proposition and futures bets.
The law, enacted in March 2023, aims to regulate the growing industry of election betting. Critics argue that this ban constitutes an overreach by the government into citizens' private lives.
They contend that many people engage in election betting as entertainment or a way to engage more closely with politics.
